[PATCH 2/2] fs: reject U64_MAX cursors in listmount() and listns()

[fujo <hooyan2024@gmail.com>]

listmount(2) and listns(2) treat their cursor as the last ID returned by
the previous invocation and look up the next entry at cursor + 1.  For
U64_MAX that addition wraps to zero, so the enumeration silently
restarts at the first visible entry instead of reporting that there are
no more entries.

listmount(LSMT_ROOT, param = U64_MAX) returned the same first mount ID
as param = 0, while param = U64_MAX - 1 returned no entries.  listns()
repeated the first page of namespace IDs for a U64_MAX cursor;
U64_MAX - 1 returned ENOENT.

U64_MAX can never be an ID returned by a previous call: mount IDs are
allocated above MNT_UNIQUE_ID_OFFSET and are strictly increasing, and
namespace IDs come from an increasing 64-bit counter.  Reject it as an
invalid cursor, like the existing check for reserved mount IDs, so that
the wrap cannot happen.
