mm/hmm/test: reject overflowing page counts
The number of pages comes directly from userspace. Shifting a value larger than ULONG_MAX >> PAGE_SHIFT discards its high bits before the existing end-address check. A request for a huge number of pages can therefore be accepted and processed as a much smaller request. Reject page counts that cannot be represented as a byte size before performing the shift. So far as ChatGPT and I can tell this doesn't cause an issue in practice but preventing this integer overflow is the correct thing to do.
