[PATCH v2 0/2] overflow: Implement size_t saturating arithmetic helpers

From: Kees Cook

Hi,

While doing more array_size() scans on the kernel, and reviewing recent[1]
struct_size() work[2], it became clear we needed helpers to perform
composed saturating adds and multiplies. This creates those helpers and
updates the self tests to check them.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210920180853.1825195-1-keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
v2:
- use static inlines instead of macros (Rasmus)
- undef local helpers defs in selftest (Rasmus)
- Make sure to keep saturation for size_sub() arguments
- update selftests for size_sub() behavior
- Add reviews

Thanks,

-Kees
