Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Add overflow checks for several syscalls

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.

Similar logic is used to fix problems with multiple syscalls.

Changelog since v2[2]:
- modified the way of checking overflows based on Andrew's comments

Changelog since v1[1]:
- only check overflow rather than access_ok to keep backward-compatibility

Ma Wupeng (4):
  mm/mlock: return EINVAL if len overflows for mlock/munlock
  mm/mempolicy: return EINVAL for if len overflows for
    set_mempolicy_home_node
  mm/mempolicy: return EINVAL if len overflows for mbind
  mm/msync: return ENOMEM if len overflows for msync
