Subject: [PATCH net] sctp: trim optlen when it's a huge value in sctp_setsockopt

After commit ca84bd058dae ("sctp: copy the optval from user space in
sctp_setsockopt"), it does memory allocation in sctp_setsockopt with
the optlen, and it would fail the allocation and return error if the
optlen from user space is a huge value.

This breaks some sockopts, like SCTP_HMAC_IDENT, SCTP_RESET_STREAMS and
SCTP_AUTH_KEY, as when processing these sockopts before, optlen would
be trimmed to a biggest value it needs when optlen is a huge value,
instead of failing the allocation and returning error.

This patch is to fix the allocation failure when it's a huge optlen from
user space by trimming it to the biggest size sctp sockopt may need when
necessary, and this biggest size is from sctp_setsockopt_reset_streams()
for SCTP_RESET_STREAMS, which is bigger than those for SCTP_HMAC_IDENT
and SCTP_AUTH_KEY.

Fixes: ca84bd058dae ("sctp: copy the optval from user space in sctp_setsockopt")
