Subject: [PATCH] hugetlbfs: check for pgoff value overflow

A vma with vm_pgoff large enough to overflow a loff_t type when
converted to a byte offset can be passed via the remap_file_pages
system call.  The hugetlbfs mmap routine uses the byte offset to
calculate reservations and file size.

A sequence such as:
  mmap(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x66033, -1, 0);
  remap_file_pages(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x20000000000000, 0);
will result in the following when task exits/file closed,
  kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:749!
Call Trace:
  hugetlbfs_evict_inode+0x2f/0x40
  evict+0xcb/0x190
  __dentry_kill+0xcb/0x150
  __fput+0x164/0x1e0
  task_work_run+0x84/0xa0
  exit_to_usermode_loop+0x7d/0x80
  do_syscall_64+0x18b/0x190
  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x3d/0xa2

The overflowed pgoff value causes hugetlbfs to try to set up a
mapping with a negative range (end < start) that leaves invalid
state which causes the BUG.
