I think that means we have the same problem if offset >
EC_MEMMAP_SIZE, only now that condition isn't detected anymore because
EC_MEMMAP_SIZE - offset is a very large number.
I think what we really want is
        if (offset + bytes > EC_MEMMAP_SIZE)
only without the overflow. Not sure how we can get there without
checking each part.
        if (offset > EC_MEMMAP_SIZE || bytes > EC_MEMMAP_SIZE || bytes
+ offset > EC_MEMMAP_SIZE)
                return -EINVAL;
Maybe that ?
        if ((u64) offset + bytes > EC_MEMMAP_SIZE)
                return -EINVAL;

Thanks,
Guenter
