Subject: pipe: avoid round_pipe_size() nr_pages overflow on 32-bit

From: Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@redhat.com>

commit d3f14c485867cfb2e0c48aa88c41d0ef4bf5209c upstream.

round_pipe_size() contains a right-bit-shift expression which may
overflow, which would cause undefined results in a subsequent
roundup_pow_of_two() call.

  static inline unsigned int round_pipe_size(unsigned int size)
  {
          unsigned long nr_pages;

          nr_pages = (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
          return roundup_pow_of_two(nr_pages) << PAGE_SHIFT;
  }

PAGE_SIZE is defined as (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT), so:
  - 4 bytes wide on 32-bit (0 to 0xffffffff)
  - 8 bytes wide on 64-bit (0 to 0xffffffffffffffff)

That means that 32-bit round_pipe_size(), nr_pages may overflow to 0:

  size=0x00000000    nr_pages=0x0
  size=0x00000001    nr_pages=0x1
  size=0xfffff000    nr_pages=0xfffff
  size=0xfffff001    nr_pages=0x0         << !
  size=0xffffffff    nr_pages=0x0         << !

This is bad because roundup_pow_of_two(n) is undefined when n == 0!

64-bit is not a problem as the unsigned int size is 4 bytes wide
(similar to 32-bit) and the larger, 8 byte wide unsigned long, is
sufficient to handle the largest value of the bit shift expression:

  size=0xffffffff    nr_pages=100000

Modify round_pipe_size() to return 0 if n == 0 and updates its callers to
handle accordingly.
