net/sched: fq: add overflow bounds to quantum and initial quantum

fq_init() computes quantum = 2 * psched_mtu() and initial_quantum = 10 *
psched_mtu() with no overflow check. A device with a huge MTU (e.g. dummy
with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634) makes psched_mtu() return
0x80000000; the 2 * and 10 * multiplications wrap to 0 in 32-bit
arithmetic, so q->quantum == 0. Then in fq_dequeue() the credit-refill
loop adds 0 to f->credit (which stays <= 0) and goto begin loops
forever under the qdisc lock, creating a soft lockup.

Clamp psched_mtu() to [1, 1 << 20] before multiplying so the product
cannot wrap, then cap the result at 1 << 20, matching the bound already
enforced on TCA_FQ_QUANTUM in fq_change().

Conditions to recreate the bug: a device whose MTU (plus
hard_header_len) is large enough that 2 * psched_mtu() wraps (e.g. a
dummy device with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634). Requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace.
