PATCH 1/1 iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Abort allocation when table address overflows the PTE

When run on a 64-bit system in selftest, the v7s driver may obtain page table with physical addresses larger than 32-bit. Level-2 tables are 1KB and are are allocated with slab, which doesn't accept the GFP_DMA32 flag. Currently map() truncates the address written in the PTE, causing iova_to_phys() or unmap() to access invalid memory. Kasan reports it as a use-after-free. To avoid any nasty surprise, test if the physical address fits in a PTE before returning a new table. 32-bit systems, which are the main users of this page table format, shouldn't see any difference.

Thanks, I'll queue this too.

It would be nice if we could use GFP_DMA32 instead of failing the request, but that doesn't work at all with the kmem_cache so we'd have to roll our own l2 allocator if we wanted to support this.
