As said before, this case is special because "sem" is a collection of 4
different values. The last one is semmni which I tries to apply the same
range clamping here, whereas the other 3 are left as they are. The
standard proc_dointvec_minmax() handler cannot be used here because of
that. I will clarify that in the commit log.
