Subject[PATCH 3.10 112/139] mm: fix overflow check in expand_upwards()
Date
From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

commit 37511fb5c91db93d8bd6e3f52f86e5a7ff7cfcdf upstream.

Jörn Engel noticed that the expand_upwards() function might not return
-ENOMEM in case the requested address is (unsigned long)-PAGE_SIZE and
if the architecture didn't defined TASK_SIZE as multiple of PAGE_SIZE.

Affected architectures are arm, frv, m68k, blackfin, h8300 and xtensa
which all define TASK_SIZE as 0xffffffff, but since none of those have
an upwards-growing stack we currently have no actual issue.

Nevertheless let's fix this just in case any of the architectures with
an upward-growing stack (currently parisc, metag and partly ia64) define
TASK_SIZE similar.
