caused by a copy-to-user with a too-large "*len" value.
This adds a argument check on *len just like in the non-compat version
of the handler.

Before the "Fixes" commit, the reproducer fails with -EINVAL as
expected:
1. core calls the "compat" getsockopt version
2. compat getsockopt version detects the *len value is possibly
   in 64-bit layout (*len != compat_len)
3. compat getsockopt version delegates everything to native getsockopt
   version
4. native getsockopt rejects invalid *len

-> compat handler only sees len == sizeof(compat_struct) for GET_ENTRIES.

After the refactor, event sequence is:
1. getsockopt calls "compat" version (len != native_len)
2. compat version attempts to copy *len bytes, where *len is random
   value from userspace

Applied, thanks.
