UPSTREAM: net: avoid signed overflows for SO_{SND|RCV}BUFFORCE


(cherry picked from commit b98b0bc8c431e3ceb4b26b0dfc8db509518fb290)

CAP_NET_ADMIN users should not be allowed to set negative
sk_sndbuf or sk_rcvbuf values, as it can lead to various memory
corruptions, crashes, OOM...

Note that before commit 82981930 ("net: cleanups in
sock_setsockopt()"), the bug was even more serious, since SO_SNDBUF
and SO_RCVBUF were vulnerable.

This needs to be backported to all known linux kernels.

Again, many thanks to syzkaller team for discovering this gem.
