Rebooting in 180 seconds..

Tracked it down to a flaw in the xmit methods for the loop and ib transports.
Those two transports, when called with an rds message that has the
RDS_FLAG_CONG_BITMAP set, execute a rds_cong_map_updated call and return.  Since
the xmit method requires that the number of bytes sent be returned, and a
congestion map update doesn't really send any data, it just returns the sizeof
an rds_header plus the defined size of the congestion map.  This is problematic
because the caller of these methods (rds_send_xmit), validates that we didn't
send more data than was available in the passed rds_message.  If the return
value from ->xmit() is larger than the remaining data in the message, we bug
halt, which is exactly what we get above.  We could add a check to skip the bug
on check if the RDS_FLAG_CONG_BITMAP flag is set, but I think the check is
otherwise valid, so I've fixed it with this patch, which limits the return value
in the effected transports to not be more than the remainig space in the
rds_message.

Tested successfully by myself to solve the above bug halt.
