Subject: [PATCH] libnvdimm: fix integer overflow static analysis warning

Dan reports:
    The patch 62232e45f4a2: "libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for
    nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices" from Jun 8, 2015, leads to the
    following static checker warning:

            drivers/nvdimm/bus.c:1018 __nd_ioctl()
            warn: integer overflows 'buf_len'

    From a casual review, this seems like it might be a real bug.  On
    the first iteration we load some data into in_env[].  On the second
    iteration we read a use controlled "in_size" from nd_cmd_in_size().
    It can go up to UINT_MAX - 1.  A high number means we will fill the
    whole in_env[] buffer.  But we potentially keep looping and adding
    more to in_len so now it can be any value.

    It simple enough to change, but it feels weird that we keep looping
    even though in_env is totally full.  Shouldn't we just return an
    error if we don't have space for desc->in_num.

We keep looping because the size of the total input is allowed to be
bigger than the 'envelope' which is a subset of the payload that tells
us how much data to expect. For safety explicitly check that buf_len
does not overflow which is what the checker flagged.
