firewire: cdev: extend transaction payload size check
Make the size check of ioctl_send_request and ioctl_send_broadcast_request speed dependent. Also change the error return code from -EINVAL to -EIO to distinguish this from other errors concerning the ioctl parameters. Another payload size limit for which we don't check here though is the remote node's Bus_Info_Block.max_rec. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
