netfilter: xt_hashlimit: limit the max size of hashtable
commit 8d0015a7 upstream. The user-specified hashtable size is unbound, this could easily lead to an OOM or a hung task as we hold the global mutex while allocating and initializing the new hashtable. Add a max value to cap both cfg->size and cfg->max, as suggested by Florian.
