[PATCH 5.16 153/164] hugetlbfs: fix a truncation issue in hugepages parameter

From: Liu Yuntao <liuyuntao10@huawei.com>

commit e79ce9832316e09529b212a21278d68240ccbf1f upstream.

When we specify a large number for node in hugepages parameter, it may
be parsed to another number due to truncation in this statement:

node = tmp;

For example, add following parameter in command line:

hugepagesz=1G hugepages=4294967297:5

and kernel will allocate 5 hugepages for node 1 instead of ignoring it.

I move the validation check earlier to fix this issue, and slightly
simplifies the condition here.
