[PATCH net-next v9 1/5] skbuff: return -EMSGSIZE in skb_to_sgvec to prevent overflow

This is a defense-in-depth measure in response to bugs like 4d6fa57b4dab ("macsec: avoid heap overflow in skb_to_sgvec"). There's not only a potential overflow of sglist items, but also a stack overflow potential, so we fix this by limiting the amount of recursion this function is allowed to do.
