Subject: [PATCH 4.9 83/91] pkt_sched: fq: do not accept silly TCA_FQ_QUANTUM

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit d9e15a2733067c9328fb56d98fe8e574fa19ec31 ]

As diagnosed by Florian :

If TCA_FQ_QUANTUM is set to 0x80000000, fq_deueue()
can loop forever in :

if (f->credit <= 0) {
  f->credit += q->quantum;
  goto begin;
}

... because f->credit is either 0 or -2147483648.

Let's limit TCA_FQ_QUANTUM to no more than 1 << 20 :
This max value should limit risks of breaking user setups
while fixing this bug.
