Subject: [PATCH linux v2] net/ipv4: ping_group_range: allow GID from
 2147483648 to 4294967294

From: Akihiro Suda <akihiro.suda.cz@....ntt.co.jp>

With this commit, all the GIDs ("0 4294967294") can be written to the
"net.ipv4.ping_group_range" sysctl.

Note that 4294967295 (0xffffffff) is an invalid GID (see gid_valid() in
include/linux/uidgid.h), and an attempt to register this number will cause
-EINVAL.

Prior to this commit, only up to GID 2147483647 could be covered.
Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.rst had "0 4294967295" as an example
value, but this example was wrong and causing -EINVAL.

v1->v2: Simplified the patch (Thanks to Kuniyuki Iwashima for suggestion)

Fixes: c319b4d76b9e ("net: ipv4: add IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind")
