Hello Ghennadi,

Could you please try the below patch to see if it is ok? The patch is based
on today's linus' tree.

Subject: [PATCH] mm, vmalloc: Fix a potential overflow bug in alloc_vmap_area

When searching a vmap area in the vmalloc space, we use
(addr + size - 1) to check if the value is less than addr, which
is an overflow. But we assign (addr + size) to vmap_area->va_end.

So if we come across the  below case:

(addr + size - 1) : not overflow
(addr + size)     : overflow

we will assign an overflow value (e.g 0) to vmap_area->va_end,
And this will trigger BUG in __insert_vmap_area, causing system
panic.

So using (addr + size) to check the overflow should be the correct
behaviour, not (addr + size - 1).
