The previous commit c09f11ef3595 ("NFS: fs_context: validate UDP retrans
to prevent shift out-of-bounds") added a check to prevent shift values
that are too large, but it fails to account for negative retrans values.
When data->retrans is negative, the condition `data->retrans >= 64` is
skipped, allowing negative values to be copied to context->retrans,
which is unsigned. This results in a large positive number that can
trigger the original UBSAN issue[1].

This issue has actually been present since very early kernels (dating
back to 2.6.x series), as the code has historically not validated
retrans values from userspace. When these large or negative values are
later used as unsigned in bit shift operations, they cause the UBSAN
warning.

This patch modifies the check to explicitly handle both negative values
and values that are too large, completing the fix that was partially
implemented by c09f11ef3595.
