NET: AX.25: Check ioctl arguments to avoid overflows further down the road.
Very large, nonsenical arguments or use in very extreme conditions could result in integer overflows. Check ioctls arguments to avoid such overflows and return -EINVAL for too large arguments. To allow the use of AX.25 for even the most extreme setup (think packet radio to the Phase 5E mars probe) we make no further attempt to clamp the argument range. Originally reported by Fan Long <longfancn@gmail.com> and a first patch was sent by Xi Wang <xi.wang@gmail.com>.
