If I understand correctly, the check is mainly used to avoid the u64 -> u32
overflow. This check guarantee no overflow. If some crazy hardware really
requests that large memory, the allocation will fail.
Sure, the kalloc will print a warn on anyhow if it is too big
Thank you. Will spin a new revision.
Oh wait a sec, it is not so simple, the 31 is too big because the
multiply will overflow or truncate to size_t too. This is why I picked
something lower.

How about define the size as u64?

 static int arm_smmu_init_strtab_linear(struct arm_smmu_device *smmu)
 {
-       u32 size;
+       u64 size;
        struct arm_smmu_strtab_cfg *cfg = &smmu->strtab_cfg;
        u32 num_sids;

It won't overflow and the large allocation will fail anyway.
