In null_alloc_dev() device size is a subject to overflow because 'g_gb'
(which is module parameter, may have any value and is not validated
anywhere) is not cast to a larger data type before performing arithmetic.

Cast 'g_gb' to unsigned long to prevent overflow.

This still does not prevent overflows... So what about doing a proper check ?

This still does not prevent overflows on 32-bits architectures.

Because "unsigned long" on 32-bits architectures is 32 bit, so solution 1 is to change the type "unsigned long" to u64, and the diff is as below:

I just built it and did not make tests.
