net: sysctl_net_core: check SNDBUF and RCVBUF for min length
sysctl has sysctl.net.core.rmem_*/wmem_* parameters which can be
set to incorrect values. Given that 'struct sk_buff' allocates from
rcvbuf, incorrectly set buffer length could result to memory
allocation failures. For example, set them as follows:
# sysctl net.core.rmem_default=64
net.core.wmem_default = 64
# sysctl net.core.wmem_default=64
net.core.wmem_default = 64
# ping localhost -s 1024 -i 0 > /dev/null
This could result to the following failure:
skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff81628db4 len:-32 put:-32
