Dan Carpenter 4b408c74ee mm/gup_benchmark.c: prevent integer overflow in ioctl 
The concern here is that "gup->size" is a u64 and "nr_pages" is unsigned
long.  On 32 bit systems we could trick the kernel into allocating fewer
pages than expected.

README 

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.
