cifs: sanity check length of data to send before sending

We had a bug discovered recently where an upper layer function
(cifs_iovec_write) could pass down a smb_rqst with an invalid amount of
data in it. The length of the SMB frame would be correct, but the rqst
struct would cause smb_send_rqst to send nearly 4GB of data.

This should never be the case. Add some sanity checking to the beginning
of smb_send_rqst that ensures that the amount of data we're going to
send agrees with the length in the RFC1002 header. If it doesn't, WARN()
and return -EIO to the upper layers.
