datapath: Reduce loop limit by one to 4.
		
We currently allow five trips through the kernel datapath
before dropping the packet to protect the stack.  However, there
have been a few reports recently involving tunneling that this is
still too much.  Although it's not a complete solution, this reduces
the limit by one to balance safety in common situations with
flexibility.
