pipe: reject F_SETPIPE_SZ with size over UINT_MAX
A pipe's size is represented as an 'unsigned int'. As expected, writing a value greater than UINT_MAX to /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size fails with EINVAL. However, the F_SETPIPE_SZ fcntl silently truncates such values to 32 bits, rather than failing with EINVAL as expected. (It *does* fail with EINVAL for values above (1 << 31) but <= UINT_MAX.) Fix this by moving the check against UINT_MAX into round_pipe_size() which is called in both cases.
