The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB. Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t. This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>. A patch had been discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 of this series). Patch 3 (this series) adds additional error checking and warning messages. One of the error checks now makes use of the previously unused rdb_CylBlocks field, which causes a 'sparse' warning (cast to restricted __be32). Annotate rdb_CylBlocks field as big endian to shut up the warning. Add comment to document that the same annotation is going to be needed for any other fields that may be used by the kernel in future.
