vsock/virtio: Move SKB allocation lower-bound check to callers

virtio_vsock_alloc_linear_skb() checks that the requested size is at
least big enough for the packet header (VIRTIO_VSOCK_SKB_HEADROOM).

Of the three callers of virtio_vsock_alloc_linear_skb(), only
vhost_vsock_alloc_skb() can potentially pass a packet smaller than the
header size and, as it already has a check against the maximum packet
size, extend its bounds checking to consider the minimum packet size
and remove the check from virtio_vsock_alloc_linear_skb().
