Hi Martin,

Thank's for your review.

Does `scsi_logging_level` needs the full range of a unsigned 32-bit 
integer ?
As it was using `proc_dointvec`, it was capped to an INT_MAX.

If it effectively need the full range of an unsigned 32-bit integer, the
`proc_handler` could be changed to `proc_douintvec` as suggested by Chuck.

Best regards,

Nicolas
