There is an impedance mismatch between the first/last valid page
frame number of ttm place in unsigned and our memory/page accounting in
unsigned long.
As the object size is under the control of userspace, we have to be prudent
and catch the conversion errors.
To catch the implicit truncation as we switch from unsigned long to
unsigned, we use overflows_type check and report E2BIG or overflow_type
prior to the operation.
v3: Not to change execution inside a macro. (Mauro)
Add safe_conversion_gem_bug_on() macro and remove temporal
SAFE_CONVERSION() macro.
v4: Fix unhandled GEM_BUG_ON() macro call from safe_conversion_gem_bug_on()
v6: Fix to follow general use case for GEM_BUG_ON(). (Jani)
v7: Fix to use WARN_ON() macro where GEM_BUG_ON() macro was used. (Jani)
v8: Replace safe_conversion() with check_assign() (Kees)
v14: Split one macro of assignment with checking of overflow to two steps,
first overflow check, and second assignment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
