[PATCH] mm: Drop INT_MAX limit from kvmalloc()

[Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev>]

A user with a 75 TB filesystem reported the following journal replay
error:
https://github.com/koverstreet/bcachefs/issues/769

In journal replay we have to sort and dedup all the keys from the
journal, which means we need a large contiguous allocation. Given that
the user has 128GB of ram, the 2GB limit on allocation size has become
far too small.
