[PATCH 2/2] mm/vmalloc: fix 32-bit truncation in the vrealloc() grow-in-place check

[Artem Lytkin <iprintercanon@gmail.com>]

Commit d57ac904ffdc ("mm/vmalloc: use physical page count for vrealloc()
grow-in-place check") introduced

	if (size <= vm->nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT) {

in place of a comparison against a size_t. As vm->nr_pages is an
unsigned int and a shift is evaluated in the type of its promoted left
operand, the right hand side is computed in 32-bit arithmetic and wraps
for areas of 4 GiB or more. Twelve lines above, in the same function,
four expressions cast for exactly this reason:

	kmemleak_free_part((void *)addr + ((unsigned long)new_nr_pages
					   << PAGE_SHIFT), ...);

The consequence here is benign. Truncation only ever makes the right
hand side smaller than the real capacity, so the test can only fail when
it should have succeeded: vrealloc() then falls through to need_realloc,
allocates a new area, copies min(size, old_size) bytes and frees the old
one. That is correct, only wasteful, and no in-tree caller currently
grows an allocation past 4 GiB, so this is a latent fix rather than a
user-visible one.

Widen the shift to match the surrounding code. Note that comparing page
counts instead, as in PAGE_ALIGN(size) >> PAGE_SHIFT <= vm->nr_pages,
would avoid the cast but introduce a real bug: PAGE_ALIGN() wraps to 0
for sizes within a page of ULONG_MAX and the test would then wrongly
succeed.
