[patch v2] ncpfs: don't allow negative timeouts

From: Dan Carpenter

This code causes a static checker warning because it's a user controlled
variable where we cap the upper bound but not the lower bound. Let's
return an -EINVAL for negative timeouts.

v2: in the original I just ignored the invalid data and went with the
default but now it returns -EINVAL.
