When parsing changes to the huge page pool sizes made from userspace via the sysfs interface, bogus input values are being covered up by nr_hugepages_store_common and nr_overcommit_hugepages_store returning 0 when strict_strtoul returns an error. This can cause an infinite loop in the nr_hugepages_store code. This patch changes the return value for these functions to -EINVAL when strict_strtoul returns an error.
