Subject: [057/127] bio: take care not overflow page count when mapping/copying user data

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@...ionio.com>

commit cb4644cac4a2797afc847e6c92736664d4b0ea34 upstream.

If the iovec is being set up in a way that causes uaddr + PAGE_SIZE
to overflow, we could end up attempting to map a huge number of
pages. Check for this invalid input type.
