Subject: [PATCH] fs: fcntl, avoid undefined behaviour

fcntl(0, F_SETOWN, 0x80000000) triggers:
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in fs/fcntl.c:118:7
negation of -2147483648 cannot be represented in type 'int':
CPU: 1 PID: 18261 Comm: syz-executor Not tainted 4.8.1-0-syzkaller #1
...
Call Trace:
...
 [<ffffffffad8f0868>] ? f_setown+0x1d8/0x200
 [<ffffffffad8f19a9>] ? SyS_fcntl+0x999/0xf30
 [<ffffffffaed1fb00>] ? entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x23/0xc1

Fix that by checking the arg parameter properly (against INT_MAX) and
return immediatelly in case it is wrong. No error is returned, the
same as in other cases.
