Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] The patch adds an unconditional overflow check on `args->mmap_offset`, which is strictly an OUT parameter for most allocation types. This will cause perfectly valid ioctl calls to randomly fail with `-EINVAL` if userspace leaves the output field uninitialized.

drm/amdkfd: reject alloc_memory_of_gpu with wrapping va_addr/mmap_offset
This commit adds check_add_overflow() checks to kfd_ioctl_alloc_memory_of_gpu()
to prevent integer wrap-arounds when calculating the end address of va_addr
and mmap_offset.

[Severity: High]
Will this check cause valid allocation requests to fail if the user space
application leaves args->mmap_offset uninitialized?
According to the uAPI in kfd_ioctl.h, mmap_offset is an OUT parameter
for non-USERPTR allocations:
struct kfd_ioctl_alloc_memory_of_gpu_args {
...
__u64 mmap_offset; /* to KFD (userptr), from KFD (mmap offset) */
...
};
Since this check is unconditional, if userspace calls this ioctl without the
KFD_IOC_ALLOC_MEM_FLAGS_USERPTR flag and leaves the mmap_offset field
uninitialized on the stack, random garbage in that field could trigger this
overflow check and spuriously return -EINVAL.
Should the args->mmap_offset overflow check be restricted to only run when
(args->flags & KFD_IOC_ALLOC_MEM_FLAGS_USERPTR) is true?
