[PATCH 2/8] pipe: move limit checking logic into pipe_set_size()

["Michael Kerrisk (man-pages)" <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is a preparatory patch for following work. Move the F_SETPIPE_SZ
limit-checking logic from pipe_fcntl() into pipe_set_size().
This simplifies the code a little, and allows for reworking
required in later patches.
