[PATCH] lib: test_overflow: Avoid taining the kernel and fix wrap size

From: Kees Cook
Date: Tue May 28 2019 - 18:54:37 EST


This adds __GFP_NOWARN to the kmalloc()-portions of the overflow test to
avoid tainting the kernel. Additionally fixes up the math on wrap size
to be architecture and page size agnostic.

Fixes: ca90800a91ba ("test_overflow: Add memory allocation overflow tests")
