[PATCH 5.11 018/329] fs: dlm: change allocation limits

[ Upstream commit c45674fbdda138814ca21138475219c96fa5aa1f ]

While running tcpkill I experienced invalid header length values while
receiving to check that a node doesn't try to send a invalid dlm message
we also check on applications minimum allocation limit. Also use
DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE as maximum allocation limit. The define
LOWCOMMS_MAX_TX_BUFFER_LEN is to calculate maximum buffer limits on
application layer, future midcomms layer will subtract their needs from
this define.
