Giving an integer to proc_doulongvec_minmax() is dangerous on 64bit arches,
since linker might place next to it a non zero value preventing a change
to ip6frag_low_thresh.

ip6frag_low_thresh is not used anymore in the kernel, but we do not
want to prematuraly break user scripts wanting to change it.

Since specifying a minimal value of 0 for proc_doulongvec_minmax()
is moot, let's remove these zero values in all defrag units.
