Enhances TIPC's computation of the amount of data to be sent so that
it works properly when large values are involved. Calculations are now
done using "size_t" instead of "int", and a check has been added to
handle cases where the total amount of data exceeds the range of "size_t".

You should probably roll this patch together with your second one.  The caller
tipc_msg_build will otherwise throw a warning when you build, as it assigns the
return value with this patch (a size_t) to a signed integer.  It probably won't
matter since you limit dsz to TIPC_MAX_USER_MSG_SIZE which is small in
comparison to the size of an int, but nevertheless, the two patches are related,
so you can merge them.
