ipc/mqueue: correct mq_attr_ok test
While working on the other parts of the mqueue stuff, I noticed that the calculation for overflow in mq_attr_ok didn't actually match reality (this is especially true since my last patch which changed how we account memory slightly). In particular, we used to test for overflow using: msgs * msgsize + msgs * sizeof(struct msg_msg *) That was never really correct because each message we allocate via load_msg() is actually a struct msg_msg followed by the data for the message (and if struct msg_msg + data exceeds PAGE_SIZE we end up allocating struct msg_msgseg structs too, but accounting for them would get really tedious, so let's ignore those...they're only a pointer in size anyway). This patch updates the calculation to be more accurate in regards to maximum possible memory consumption by the mqueue.
