Patch Upstream: ipc: don't allocate a copy larger than max

[Gregs git-bot <greg@xxxxxxxxx>]

commit: 88b9e456b1649722673ffa147914299799dc9041

Subject: ipc: don't allocate a copy larger than max

When MSG_COPY is set, a duplicate message must be allocated for the copy
before locking the queue.  However, the copy could not be larger than was
sent which is limited to msg_ctlmax.
