Subject: mm/gup: do not return 0 from pin_user_pages_fast() for bad args
Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2023 15:27:25 -0300

These routines are not intended to return zero, the callers cannot do
anything sane with a 0 return.  They should return an error which means
future calls to GUP will not succeed, or they should return some non-zero
number of pinned pages which means GUP should be called again.

If start + nr_pages overflows it should return -EOVERFLOW to signal the
arguments are invalid.

Syzkaller keeps tripping on this when fuzzing GUP arguments.
