Subject: [PATCH v1 04/14] futex: Validate futex value against futex size

Ensure the futex value fits in the given futex size. Since this adds a
constraint to an existing syscall, it might possibly change behaviour.

Currently the value would be truncated to a u32 and any high bits
would get silently lost.
