net/packet: check TX_RING fragments before memory accounting
tpacket_fill_skb() adds the full non-linear payload length to skb->truesize and sk_wmem_alloc before checking MAX_SKB_FRAGS. With PACKET_VNET_HDR, userspace can submit a ring-sized frame even when it greatly exceeds the device MTU. A near-INT_MAX frame can saturate sk_wmem_alloc before the fragment loop rejects it. A subsequent refcount_add(0x40000001) can temporarily turn REFCOUNT_SATURATED into 1. A concurrent TX completion can then drop that apparent last reference and free the still-live packet socket before refcount_warn_saturate() restores the counter. Check that the remaining payload fits in MAX_SKB_FRAGS pages before accounting it. Include the initial page offset in the calculation, and move the existing -EFAULT handling out of the fragment loop. This preserves the accepted packet sizes and error code while preventing an invalid frame from injecting an oversized byte charge.
