Hi!

commit fad7cd3310db ("nbd: add the check to prevent overflow in
__nbd_ioctl()")

raised an issue from the fallback helpers added in

commit f0907827a8a9 ("compiler.h: enable builtin overflow checkers and add fallback code")

Specifically, the helpers for checking whether the results of a
multiplication overflowed (__unsigned_mul_overflow,
__signed_add_overflow) use the division operator when
!COMPILER_HAS_GENERIC_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW. This is problematic for 64b
operands on 32b hosts.

Please don't. gcc 4.9.2 is still in use here.

Plus, someone will want to prevent overflow in -stable, too, and you
can't really raise gcc version there.

Best regards,
									Pavel
