BTW. This patch improves dm-verity overflow checking. Mikulas --- dm-verity: fix overflow checking Overflow checking in dm-verity was not sufficient. It would check overflow if sector_t was smaller than long long but not if sector_t and long long have the same size. This patch implements proper overflow checking.
