[LTP] [PATCH] shmget02: reduce the shmmax test value in compat mode

As Arnd Bergmann pointed out that SHMMAX being defined as
(ULONG_MAX - (1UL << 24)), so the kernel would likely use
a large 64-bit value, while the 32-bit user space uses a
much smaller limit.

It finally results in ENOMEM failure:
  shmget02.c:95: TFAIL: shmget(1644199826, 4278190080, 1536)
                 expected EINVAL: ENOMEM (12)

With suggest by Manfred Spraul we could reduce the value
of '/proc/sys/kernel/shmmax' in compat mode and only test
the overflow behavior with default+1.
