Subject: [PATCH 5.1 327/371] block: Fix potential overflow in blk_report_zones()

From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@....com>

commit 113ab72ed4794c193509a97d7c6d32a6886e1682 upstream.

For large values of the number of zones reported and/or large zone
sizes, the sector increment calculated with

blk_queue_zone_sectors(q) * n

in blk_report_zones() loop can overflow the unsigned int type used for
the calculation as both "n" and blk_queue_zone_sectors() value are
unsigned int. E.g. for a device with 256 MB zones (524288 sectors),
overflow happens with 8192 or more zones reported.

Changing the return type of blk_queue_zone_sectors() to sector_t, fixes
this problem and avoids overflow problem for all other callers of this
helper too. The same change is also applied to the bdev_zone_sectors()
helper.

Fixes: e76239a3748c ("block: add a report_zones method")
