  Modified files:
    sys/net              if_media.c 
  Log:
  Santize a size variable passed to kernel malloc.
  
  Since we know there's always an upper bound we force that bound,
  otherwise users can cause a panic via malloc getting hit with a
  odd (huge or negative) amount of memory to allocate.
