Subject: drm: crtc: integer overflow in drm_property_create_blob()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit 9ac0934bbe52290e4e4c2a58ec41cab9b6ca8c96 upstream.

The size here comes from the user via the ioctl, it is a number between
1-u32max so the addition here could overflow on 32 bit systems.
