[PATCH 5.4 076/222] locking/lockdep: Fix buffer overrun problem in stack_trace[]

From: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>

commit d91f3057263ceb691ef527e71b41a56b17f6c869 upstream.

If the lockdep code is really running out of the stack_trace entries,
it is likely that buffer overrun can happen and the data immediately
after stack_trace[] will be corrupted.

If there is less than LOCK_TRACE_SIZE_IN_LONGS entries left before
the call to save_trace(), the max_entries computation will leave it
with a very large positive number because of its unsigned nature. The
subsequent call to stack_trace_save() will then corrupt the data after
stack_trace[]. Fix that by changing max_entries to a signed integer
and check for negative value before calling stack_trace_save().
