Subject: kasan: avoid overflowing quarantine size on low memory systems

From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com>

commit c3cee372282cb6bcdf19ac1457581d5dd5ecb554 upstream.

If the total amount of memory assigned to quarantine is less than the
amount of memory assigned to per-cpu quarantines, |new_quarantine_size|
may overflow.  Instead, set it to zero.
