Subject: [PATCH 4.9 23/25] ext4: check return value of kstrtoull correctly in reserved_clusters_store

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chao Yu <yuchao0@...wei.com>

commit 1ea1516fbbab2b30bf98c534ecaacba579a35208 upstream.

kstrtoull returns 0 on success, however, in reserved_clusters_store we
will return -EINVAL if kstrtoull returns 0, it makes us fail to update
reserved_clusters value through sysfs.
