Subject: perf/x86/intel/pt: Do validate the size of a kernel address filter

From: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1155bafcb79208abc6ae234c6e135ac70607755c upstream.

Right now, the kernel address filters in PT are prone to integer overflow
that may happen in adding filter's size to its offset to obtain the end
of the range. Such an overflow would also throw a #GP in the PT event
configuration path.

Fix this by explicitly validating the result of this calculation.
