udp: fix integer overflow while computing available space in sk_rcvbuf
When the size of the receive buffer for a socket is close to 2^31 when computing if we have enough space in the buffer to copy a packet from the queue to the buffer we might hit an integer overflow. When an user set net.core.rmem_default to a value close to 2^31 UDP packets are dropped because of this overflow. This can be visible, for instance, with failure to resolve hostnames. This can be fixed by casting sk_rcvbuf (which is an int) to unsigned int, similarly to how it is done in TCP. Signed-off-by: Antonio Messina <amessina@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
