description:
tty: Avoid undefined behaviour (left shift of 1 by 31 places overflows int)

The valid sizes of the tty input and output queues (according to the man page)
are between 1024 and 65536 and input values are converted to a power of two.

The check on the validity of the range is done after the input values are
converted, however, which means that a hostile program can attempt to set
the queue size to a negative value, and cause integer overflow before
the range is validated.
