KVM: Disallow user memslot with size that exceeds "unsigned long"
Reject userspace memslots whose size exceeds the storage capacity of an "unsigned long". KVM's uAPI takes the size as u64 to support large slots on 64-bit hosts, but does not account for the size being truncated on 32-bit hosts in various flows. The access_ok() check on the userspace virtual address in particular casts the size to "unsigned long" and will check the wrong number of bytes. KVM doesn't actually support slots whose size doesn't fit in an "unsigned long", e.g. KVM's internal kvm_memory_slot.npages is an "unsigned long", not a "u64", and misc arch specific code follows that behavior.
