Subject[30/74] nfsd4: reject "negative" acl lengths
3.2.43-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>

commit 64a817cfbded8674f345d1117b117f942a351a69 upstream.

Since we only enforce an upper bound, not a lower bound, a "negative"
length can get through here.

The symptom seen was a warning when we attempt to a kmalloc with an
excessive size.
