## Description

From sysctl test logs, I can see below errors:

# Test messages # Sysctl_fs_inotify_max_user_watches
# failure: 

expected: 15070%0.5
returned: 14959
invalid value: '14959', expected '14994:15145'

The same test passed 3 months ago, see https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4008446#step/Sysctl/31

Is it a product bug or by design/feature?
