It's not a risk.  Better to say, "although this works, it's still a bit
ugly and static checkers will complain".

I wouldn't have commented on the commit message except that this patch
checkpatch warning so you're going to have to redo it anyway.  Run
scripts/checkpatch.pl on your patches before sending them.

WARNING: please, no spaces at the start of a line
#49: FILE: fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:158:
+    if (check_add_overflow(vma_len, (loff_t)vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, &len))$

WARNING: suspect code indent for conditional statements (4, 16)
#49: FILE: fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:158:
+    if (check_add_overflow(vma_len, (loff_t)vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, &len))
                return -EINVAL;

total: 0 errors, 2 warnings, 10 lines checked
