scsi: mpt3sas: Validate CurrentHostPageSize before using it as a shift amount

This commit validates facts->CurrentHostPageSize read from the IOCFacts reply
in _base_get_ioc_facts() and falls back to MPT3SAS_HOST_PAGE_SIZE_4K if it is
outside the allowed range before computing ioc->page_size.

[Severity: Medium]
Can facts->CurrentHostPageSize == 31 still trigger a signed 32-bit shift
overflow here, and can values in 13..31 break downstream page_size consumers?

Because the left operand of 1 << facts->CurrentHostPageSize is a signed 32-bit
int literal (rather than 1U or BIT()), a value of 31 passes the >= 32 check
and shifts 1 into the sign bit, which is undefined behavior in C and still
triggers UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds.

In addition, _base_send_ioc_init() always programs the controller for a 4 KiB
host page size:

drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:_base_send_ioc_init() {
	...
	mpi_request.HostPageSize = MPT3SAS_HOST_PAGE_SIZE_4K;
	...
}

Allowing CurrentHostPageSize values up to 31 produces ioc->page_size values up
to 0x80000000U (2 GiB). During probe in _base_allocate_memory_pools(), this
can overflow 32-bit pool sizing arithmetic and cause
_base_allocate_pcie_sgl_pool() to fail in dma_pool_create() with -ENOMEM
instead of falling back to 4 KiB:

drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:_base_allocate_memory_pools() {
	...
		sz = nvme_blocks_needed * ioc->page_size;
		rc = _base_allocate_pcie_sgl_pool(ioc, sz);
		if (rc == -ENOMEM)
			return -ENOMEM;
		else if (rc == -EAGAIN)
			goto try_32bit_dma;
		total_sz += sz * ioc->scsiio_depth;
	...
}

If a controller reset via
mpt3sas_base_hard_reset_handler()->_base_get_ioc_facts() updates
ioc->page_size to 0x80000000U after pools are already allocated,
base_make_prp_nvme() subtracts u32 nvme_pg_size (ioc->page_size) from signed
int data_len and sge_len:

drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c:base_make_prp_nvme() {
	...
		sge_addr += nvme_pg_size;
		sge_len -= nvme_pg_size;
		data_len -= nvme_pg_size;

		if (data_len <= 0)
			break;
	...
}

When nvme_pg_size is 0x80000000U, subtracting it wraps negative signed 32-bit
values back to positive, which can walk sg_next(sg_scmd) past the end of the
scatterlist and overrun the 4 KiB pcie_sgl DMA buffer.

Should this use 1U << facts->CurrentHostPageSize (or BIT()) and restrict
CurrentHostPageSize to MPT3SAS_HOST_PAGE_SIZE_4K (or a safe upper bound that
cannot overflow DMA pool and NVMe PRP calculations)?
