It is possible, when a very large mapping uses only one
scatterlist, that padding overflows scatterlist's length field.
This results in:
1) silently wrapping the value
2) smaller than desired mappings produced by iommu_map_sg
3) leaving mapped bytes in memory (no iommu_unmap)
Address this issue by adding overflow detection for scatterlist
length field.

v5 (sashiko review):
* Included overflow checking on addition, previously silently
omitted inside iova_align arguments.
* Added check for zero-mapping via temporary variable comparison.
* Added overflows_type on s->length to satisfy 64 bit systems.

This is unnecessary - s_iova_off will always be <= sg->offset, and since
the maximum possible segment boundary mask is 32 bits, if sg->offset +
sg->length would overflow then by definition it must cross a segment
boundary, so the segment is malformed to begin with and all bets are off.

Similarly, a 0-length segment wouldn't be valid either (consider in the
simple case it would end up with sg_dma_len() == 0 which means "end of
mapping")
Thanks,
Robin.
