virtio-net: Verify page list size before fitting into skb
This patch verifies that the length of a buffer stored in a linked list of pages is small enough to fit into a skb. If the size is larger than a max size of a skb, it means that we shouldn't go ahead building skbs anyway since we won't be able to send the buffer as the user requested.
