[PATCH 5.11 596/601] bpf, ringbuf: Deny reserve of buffers larger than ringbuf

From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@canonical.com>

commit 4b81ccebaeee885ab1aa1438133f2991e3a2b6ea upstream.

A BPF program might try to reserve a buffer larger than the ringbuf size.
If the consumer pointer is way ahead of the producer, that would be
successfully reserved, allowing the BPF program to read or write out of
the ringbuf allocated area.
