I completely lost track of this, meant to post these patches weeks ago.
Compile tested only.
v2:
- Fix an off-by-one bug.
- Use gpa_t instead of raw u64.
- Tweak the order of checks to bundle similar checks together, and to perform
the super basic checks (alignment, size, etc.) first.

The nr_pages field in struct kvm_tdx_init_mem_region is a u64 that comes
directly from userspace via copy_from_user(). The current validation
uses a manual overflow check:
region.gpa + (region.nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT) <= region.gpa
When nr_pages >= 2^52, the shift (nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT) wraps around
to a small value, bypassing the wrap check. While downstream protections
(gfn_to_memslot() returning NULL for GFNs outside any memslot, and
kvm_slot_has_gmem() checking for NULL) prevent any actual out-of-bounds
access, the overflow itself is a real bug that should be caught at the
validation layer.
Replace the manual overflow check with check_shl_overflow() to correctly
detect the wrap-around.
Note, the manual wrap-around check on the gpa+size technically has a benign
off-by-one bug, and can also use check_add_overflow(). Those flaws will be
addressed shortly.
Opportunistically separate the initial sanity checks from the more involved
checks to try and make the code easier to read.

When verifying that the incoming GPA rage for INIT_MEM_REGION doesn't wrap,
check the inclusive last GPA, not the exclusive last GPA. Super duper
technically, it's ok if the very last GPA is -1ull. In practice, the flaw
is benign as KVM x86 disallows memslots with GPAs that exceed MAXPHYADDR,
i.e. INIT_MEM_REGION would fail with -EINVAL anyways due to the memslot
check in kvm_gmem_populate().
Opportunistically use check_add_overflow() instead of manually checking for
wrap, mostly so that the inclusive math doesn't need to be copy+pasted in
the "is private" check.
