Herbert Xu b7000254c1 af_key: Fix send_acquire race with pfkey_register
[ Upstream commit 7f57f8165c ]

The function pfkey_send_acquire may race with pfkey_register
(which could even be in a different name space).  This may result
in a buffer overrun.

Allocating the maximum amount of memory that could be used prevents
this.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
