Linux Kernel vulnerability analysis and mitigation

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommufd: Check for uptr overflow

syzkaller found that setting up a map with a user VA that wraps past zero can trigger WARN_ONs, particularly from pin_user_pages weirdly returning 0 due to invalid arguments.

Prevent creating a pages with a uptr and size that would math overflow.
