tcp: Increase TCP_MAXSEG socket option minimum.
commit 7a1abd08 upstream. As noted by Steve Chen, since commit f5fff5dc ("tcp: advertise MSS requested by user") we can end up with a situation where tcp_select_initial_window() does a divide by a zero (or even negative) mss value. The problem is that sometimes we effectively subtract TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED and/or TCPOLEN_MD5SIG_ALIGNED from the mss. Fix this by increasing the minimum from 8 to 64.
