Hi,

Please find one patch to prevent a possible issue partially
addressed by commit 8494057ab5e4 ("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer
overflow in ib_umem_get address arithmetic") (see discussions
in [1]) and another one to add back the possibility of registering
memory mapped at 0 (which is probably not something to be allowed,
but it's probably not up to ib_umem_get() to prevent it).

Changes from v0 [2]:
- don't touch to overflow logic in first patch:
  not modifying the logic here so that the patch can be applied
  even on kernel without the overflow preventing checks,
  and second patch is going to rewrite the check.

- don't break overflow detection in second patch:
  changing less or equal to less comparison broke the overflow
  detection logic regarding to rounding done by PAGE_ALIGN,
  so fixes this by checking for overflow in addr + size,
  then by checking for overflow in PAGE_ALIGN(addr + size).
