Subject: futex: Prevent overflow by strengthen input validation
From: Li Jinyue <lijinyue@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit fbe0e839d1e22d88810f3ee3e2f1479be4c0aa4a upstream.
UBSAN reports signed integer overflow in kernel/futex.c:
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/futex.c:2041:18
signed integer overflow:
0 - -2147483648 cannot be represented in type 'int'
Add a sanity check to catch negative values of nr_wake and nr_requeue.
