[ Upstream commit 36845663843fc59c5d794e3dc0641472e3e572da ]
Some graphic card has very big memory on chip, such as 32G bytes.
In the following case, it will cause overflow:
pool = gen_pool_create(PAGE_SHIFT, NUMA_NO_NODE);
ret = gen_pool_add(pool, 0x1000000, SZ_32G, NUMA_NO_NODE);
va = gen_pool_alloc(pool, SZ_4G);
The overflow occurs in gen_pool_alloc_algo_owner():
....
size = nbits << order;
....
The @nbits is "int" type, so it will overflow.
Then the gen_pool_avail() will return the wrong value.
This patch converts some "int" to "unsigned long", and
changes the compare code in while.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
