Chen Jun bcbda81020 mm: fix uninitialized use in overcommit_policy_handler 
We get an unexpected value of /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory after
running the following program:

  int main()
  {
      int fd = open("/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory", O_RDWR);
      write(fd, "1", 1);
      write(fd, "2", 1);
      close(fd);
  }

write(fd, "2", 1) will pass *ppos = 1 to proc_dointvec_minmax.
proc_dointvec_minmax will return 0 without setting new_policy.

  t.data = &new_policy;
  ret = proc_dointvec_minmax(&t, write, buffer, lenp, ppos)
      -->do_proc_dointvec
         -->__do_proc_dointvec
              if (write) {
                if (proc_first_pos_non_zero_ignore(ppos, table))
                  goto out;

  sysctl_overcommit_memory = new_policy;

so sysctl_overcommit_memory will be set to an uninitialized value.

Check whether new_policy has been changed by proc_dointvec_minmax.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
