[PATCH 4.15-rc8] net/core: Increase default optmem_max limit

[Björn 'besser82' Esser]

With the new Linux Kernel Crypto API User Space Interface and
its underlying socket interface, the current default value for
`net.core.optmem_max` can be exhausted pretty quick.
On 32 bit systems it is not even enough for sending 16 IOVECs
at once to the socket interface.

To provide consumers of this new user space interface a
sufficient and reasonable maximum ancillary buffer size per
socket by default, the limit is increased to four times of the
previous setting:

  * 32 bit systems:  from 10240 bytes to 40960 bytes
  * 64 bit systems:  from 20480 bytes to 81920 bytes

This allows for sending 32/64 (32/64 bit) parallel IOVECs at
once to the socket interface, which should be enough for use
in real world applications.
