The sum of offset + length, both 32 bit unsigned integers, could wrap
around, causing comparisons to give the wrong result.
This was fixed by using 64 bit instead of 32 bit for calculating the sum.

Note:
When the branch is not taken for the initial "if ((uint64_t)off + len >
rte_pktmbuf_pkt_len(m))" comparison, the sum is known to not exceed the
maximum possible value of rte_pktmbuf_pkt_len(m), UINT32_MAX, and
following sum calculations can proceed using 32 bit.
