I doubt that is necessary, or even useful.   It is certainly possible that in
your environment you won't lose any routing messages with the bigger
buffer, and in that case, the dhcpcd issue won't bother you - but it would
still be there, until one day, something unusual happens, you get more
routing socket messages than usual, and one is lost.   The real problem
is fixed, an occasional message from dhcpcd saying it lost a message
will harm nothing (since it now recovers properly).

Whatever your results are from that test won't provide any useful info,
so I just wouldn't waste the time and effort.
