Disable broken override bits in pedit action. It misses
locking and needs to allocate new memory if nkeys increases.
Also disable it for now.

There are a couple of these that you have (ipt being other). Could you
just add a check for size before returning -EOPNOTSUPP?
Example:
	if (ovr)
		if (p->nkeys != parm->nkeys)
			return -EOPNOTSUPP;

This way if they are of the same size then things should work as is
and my testcases dont break. Now if you feel more gracious, go ahead and
fix them ;->

 	ret = -EEXIST;
 	if (ovr) {
+		/* FIXME: no locking, larger memory area might be required */
+		return -EOPNOTSUPP;
 		ret = 0;
 override:
 		p->flags = parm->flags;
