Subject: drivers/virt/fsl_hypervisor.c: prevent integer overflow in ioctl

The "param.count" value is a u64 thatcomes from the user.  The code later
in the function assumes that param.count is at least one and if it's not
then it leads to an Oops when we dereference the ZERO_SIZE_PTR.

Also the addition can have an integer overflow which would lead us to
allocate a smaller "pages" array than required.  I can't immediately tell
what the possible run times implications are, but it's safest to prevent
the overflow.
