[PATCH 6/6] lib/scatterlist: Fix overflow check in sgl_alloc_order

[Tvrtko Ursulin]

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@xxxxxxxxx>

It is necessary to ensure types on both sides of the comparison are of the
same width. Otherwise the check overflows sooner than expect due left hand
side being an unsigned long length, and the right hand side unsigned int
number of elements multiplied by element size.
