CVE-2025-38465

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netlink: Fix wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.

Netlink has this pattern in some places

  if (atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc) > sk->sk_rcvbuf)
  	atomic_add(skb->truesize, &sk->sk_rmem_alloc);

, which has the same problem fixed by commit 5a465a0da13e ("udp:
Fix multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.").

For example, if we set INT_MAX to SO_RCVBUFFORCE, the condition
is always false as the two operands are of int.

Then, a single socket can eat as many skb as possible until OOM
happens, and we can see multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.

Let's fix it by using atomic_add_return() and comparing the two
variables as unsigned int.

Before:
  [root@fedora ~]# ss -f netlink
  Recv-Q      Send-Q Local Address:Port                Peer Address:Port
  -1668710080 0               rtnl:nl_wraparound/293               *

After:
  [root@fedora ~]# ss -f netlink
  Recv-Q     Send-Q Local Address:Port                Peer Address:Port
  2147483072 0               rtnl:nl_wraparound/290               *
