atm: atmtcp: Prevent arbitrary write in atmtcp_recv_control().

syzbot reported the splat below. [0]

When atmtcp_v_open() or atmtcp_v_close() is called via connect()
or close(), atmtcp_send_control() is called to send an in-kernel
special message.

The message has ATMTCP_HDR_MAGIC in atmtcp_control.hdr.length.
Also, a pointer of struct atm_vcc is set to atmtcp_control.vcc.

The notable thing is struct atmtcp_control is uAPI but has a
space for an in-kernel pointer.

  struct atmtcp_control {
  	struct atmtcp_hdr hdr;	/* must be first */
  ...
  	atm_kptr_t vcc;		/* both directions */
  ...
  } __ATM_API_ALIGN;

  typedef struct { unsigned char _[8]; } __ATM_API_ALIGN atm_kptr_t;

The special message is processed in atmtcp_recv_control() called
from atmtcp_c_send().

atmtcp_c_send() is vcc->dev->ops->send() and called from 2 paths:

  1. .ndo_start_xmit() (vcc->send() == atm_send_aal0())
  2. vcc_sendmsg()

The problem is sendmsg() does not validate the message length and
userspace can abuse atmtcp_recv_control() to overwrite any kptr
by atmtcp_control.

Let's add a new ->pre_send() hook to validate messages from sendmsg().
