[PATCH 4.19 115/131] vt: dont hardcode the mem allocation upper bound

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Nicolas Pitre <nico@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2717769e204e83e65b8819c5e2ef3e5b6639b270 upstream.

The code in vc_do_resize() bounds the memory allocation size to avoid
exceeding MAX_ORDER down the kzalloc() call chain and generating a
runtime warning triggerable from user space. However, not only is it
unwise to use a literal value here, but MAX_ORDER may also be
configurable based on CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER.
Let's use KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE instead.

Note that prior commit bb1107f7c605 ("mm, slab: make sure that
KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE will fit into MAX_ORDER") the KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE value
could not be relied upon.
