[ Upstream commit c180188ec02281126045414e90d08422a80f75b4 ]

Commit 7acf8a1e8a28 ("Replace 2 jiffies with sysctl netdev_budget_usecs
to enable softirq tuning") added a possibility to set
net_hotdata.netdev_budget_usecs, but added no lower bound checking.

Commit a4837980fd9f ("net: revert default NAPI poll timeout to 2 jiffies")
made the *initial* value HZ-dependent, so the initial value is at least
2 jiffies even for lower HZ values (2 ms for 1000 Hz, 8ms for 250 Hz, 20
ms for 100 Hz).

But a user still can set improper values by a sysctl. Set .extra1
(the lower bound) for net_hotdata.netdev_budget_usecs to the same value
as in the latter commit. That is to 2 jiffies.

Fixes: a4837980fd9f ("net: revert default NAPI poll timeout to 2 jiffies")
Fixes: 7acf8a1e8a28 ("Replace 2 jiffies with sysctl netdev_budget_usecs to enable softirq tuning")
