I had to go read the syzbot report to understand what was actually being
fixed here. Can you be a bit more verbose in this commit log? It sounds
like huge usercopy sizes were allowed by drm (though I guess they would
fail gracefully in some other way?) but after 6a30afa8c1fb, the copy
would yell about sizes where INT_MAX < size < ULONG_MAX - sizeof(...) ?
What was the prior failure mode that made the existing ULONG_MAX check
safe? Your patch looks fine, though:

Traditionally these things live in akpm's tree when they are fixes for
patches in there. I have no idea how the Fixes tags work in that case,
though...
