Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] mm/mlock: return EINVAL if len overflows for mlock/munlock

From: Ma Wupeng <mawupeng1@...wei.com>

While testing mlock, we have a problem if the len of mlock is ULONG_MAX.
The return value of mlock is zero. But nothing will be locked since the
len in do_mlock overflows to zero due to the following code in mlock:

  len = PAGE_ALIGN(len + (offset_in_page(start)));

The same problem happens in munlock.

Add new check and return -EINVAL to fix this overflowing scenarios since
they are absolutely wrong.
