dm-ploop: fix u32 overflow of the delta BAT byte size
This commit computes the byte size of the header and BAT in u64 and uses
ploop_nr_bat_clusters() for the number of BAT clusters everywhere. It also
rejects a header or a resize whose hb_nr exceeds PLOOP_MAX_HB_NR.

[Severity: Low]
The commit message says the u32 overflow is fixed "everywhere", but the
sibling helper ploop_bat_clu_to_page_nr() in this same header still has
the same pattern:
static inline u32 ploop_bat_clu_to_page_nr(u32 clu)
{
u64 byte;
byte = (clu + PLOOP_MAP_OFFSET) * sizeof(map_index_t);
return byte >> PAGE_SHIFT;
}
Here the multiplication is evaluated at size_t width, and only the
result is widened to u64. On a 32-bit build this wraps for
clu >= 2^30 - PLOOP_MAP_OFFSET, which is the same range the commit
message describes.
DM_PLOOP in drivers/md/Kconfig depends only on BLK_DEV_DM, with no 64BIT
restriction, so a 32-bit build appears possible. PLOOP_MAX_HB_NR is
about 2^32 - 24, so ploop_setup_metadata() and ploop_resize() would still
accept a BAT in that range.
Can ploop_prealloc_md_pages() then under-allocate md pages on 32-bit?
ploop_resize()
ploop_prealloc_md_pages()
new_nr_pages = ploop_bat_clu_to_page_nr(new_nr_bat_entries - 1) + 1;
The same wrapped value would also feed init_be_iter(),
ploop_bat_entries() and the other callers of this helper.
This is probably not reachable in practice, since a BAT of 2^30 entries
needs more than 4 GiB of md pages. Would it make sense to cast clu to
u64 before the multiplication, as is done in ploop_nr_bat_clusters(), so
the helpers stay consistent with the commit message?
