IoctlStoreSetPermissions() compares InLen with
FIELD_OFFSET(XENIFACE_STORE_SET_PERMISSIONS_IN, Permissions[N]), whose
64-bit result is truncated to ULONG. The count was only capped to 255
later, in __ConvertPermissions(), so the length check alone could be
satisfied by a huge count.

Check the cap first, with the same STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER as before.
The check in __ConvertPermissions() is removed and fails are updated
accordingly.
