I would be a way more clear, as this is there to prevent a single
special case: length == ULEN_MAX. Something like:

        If one tried to allocate a buffer with sizeof(ULEN_MAX), this will cause
        an overflow at PAGE_ALIGN(), making it return zero as the size of the
        buffer, causing the code to fail.

I would even let it clearer at the code itself. So, instead of the
hunk you proposed, I would do:

        unsigned long size = vb->planes[plane].length;

        /* Prevent PAGE_ALIGN overflow */
        if (WARN_ON(size == ULONG_MAX))
                goto free;

        size = PAGE_ALIGN(vb->planes[plane].length);

Thanks,
Mauro
