Para las interfaces dirty_bytes/dirty_background_bytes podemos simplemente negarnos a establecer l\u00edmites tan grandes. Para dirty_ratio / dirty_background_ratio no es tan simple ya que el l\u00edmite sucio se calcula a partir de la cantidad de memoria disponible que puede cambiar debido a la conexi\u00f3n en caliente de la memoria, etc. Entonces, al convertir l\u00edmites sucios de proporciones a n\u00fameros de p\u00e1ginas, simplemente no permitimos el el resultado excede UINT_MAX. Este es un problema que se puede activar solo desde la ra\u00edz y que ocurre cuando el operador establece l\u00edmites sucios en \u0026gt;16
