Eric Biggers 6f49f00c98 crypto: drbg - Fix drbg_max_addtl() on 64-bit kernels
On 64-bit kernels, drbg_max_addtl() returns 2**35 bytes.  That's too
large, for two reasons:

1. SP800-90A says the maximum limit is 2**35 *bits*, not 2**35 bytes.
   So the implemented limit has confused bits and bytes.

2. When drbg_kcapi_hash() calls crypto_shash_update() on the additional
   information string, the length is implicitly cast to 'unsigned int'.
   That truncates the additional information string to U32_MAX bytes.

Fix the maximum additional information string length to always be
U32_MAX - 1, causing an error to be returned for any longer lengths.
