[PATCH] Check for wraps in copy_page_range

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

Hi !

While browsing the 4 level page table changes (looking for a bug), I
noticed that copy_page_range, unlike others, do not check for
wraparound, which I suppose could be a problem with 4G/4G architectures
or that sort of thing.

This patch fixes it.
