When using the SOL_SOCKET level socket option SO_LINGER, the structure
struct linger is used as the option value. The component l_linger is of
type int, but internally copied to the field so_linger of the structure
struct socket. The type of so_linger is short, but it is assumed to be
non-negative and the value is used to compute ticks to be stored in a
variable of type int.
Therefore, perform input validation on l_linger similar to the one
performed by NetBSD and OpenBSD.
Thanks to syzkaller for making me aware of this issue.
Thanks to markj@ for pointing out that a similar check should be added
to so_linger_set().
