Michal Luczaj 1465036b10 llc: Improve setsockopt() handling of malformed user input
copy_from_sockptr() is used incorrectly: return value is the number of
bytes that could not be copied. Since it's deprecated, switch to
copy_safe_from_sockptr().

Note: Keeping the `optlen != sizeof(int)` check as copy_safe_from_sockptr()
by itself would also accept optlen > sizeof(int). Which would allow a more
lenient handling of inputs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
