[PATCH 5.10 014/122] overflow: Allow mixed type arguments

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

5.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

commit d219d2a9a92e39aa92799efe8f2aa21259b6dd82 upstream.

When the check_[op]_overflow() helpers were introduced, all arguments
were required to be the same type to make the fallback macros simpler.
However, now that the fallback macros have been removed[1], it is fine
to allow mixed types, which makes using the helpers much more useful,
as they can be used to test for type-based overflows (e.g. adding two
large ints but storing into a u8), as would be handy in the drm core[2].

Remove the restriction, and add additional self-tests that exercise
some of the mixed-type overflow cases, and double-check for accidental
macro side-effects.
