tipc: fix message importance range check

[ Upstream commit ac32c7f7 ]

Commit 3b4f302d ("tipc: eliminate
redundant locking") introduced a bug by removing the sanity check
for message importance, allowing programs to assign any value to
the msg_user field. This will mess up the packet reception logic
and may cause random link resets.
