When mergeable buffers are disabled, and the
incoming packet is too large for the rx buffer,
get_rx_bufs returns success.

This was intentional in order for make recvmsg
truncate the packet and then handle_rx would
detect err != sock_len and drop it.

Unfortunately we pass the original sock_len to
recvmsg - which means we use parts of iov not fully
validated.

Fix this up by detecting this overrun and doing packet drop
immediately.

CVE-2014-0077

Changes from v1:
	Fix CVE# in the commit log.
	Patch is unchanged.

Note: this is needed for -stable.

I wonder if this can still make the release.

Applied and queued up for -stable.

I will try but no promises.
