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.
