Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: add timeout sanity check to hci_inquiry

Syzbot hit "task hung" bug in hci_req_sync(). The problem was in
unreasonable huge inquiry timeout passed from userspace.
Fix it by adding sanity check for timeout value and add constant to
hsi_sock.h to inform userspace, that hci_inquiry_req::length field has
maximum possible value.

Since hci_inquiry() is the only user of hci_req_sync() with user
controlled timeout value, it makes sense to check timeout value in
hci_inquiry() and don't touch hci_req_sync().

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")

Hi, Bluetooth maintainers/reviewers!

I believe, 60 seconds will be more than enough for inquiry request. I've
searched for examples on the internet and maximum ir.length I found was 
8. Maybe, we have users, which need more than 60 seconds... I look forward
to receiving your views on this value.
