updating the limit to 'unlimited' throws misleading error

Description of problem:
I created a activation-key with "content host limit" 6.

Later, I updated the limit to unlimited and UI raises error:

An error occurred saving the Activation Key: Validation failed: Max content hosts cannot be nil

Firstly, I updated the limit to 'unlimited' and error message says "Max content hosts cannot be nil" This error message is misleading here, isn't it ?

Please correct me if I misunderstood something..

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sat6 GA snap3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a activation-eky with content-host limit with finite no ( say 6)
2. Update the limit to 'unlimited'
3.

Actual results:
UI throws error:
An error occurred saving the Activation Key: Validation failed: Max content hosts cannot be nil

Expected results:
The limit should be updated to 'unlimited' without any error
