[PATCH v2] module: fix validate_section_offset() overflow bug on 64-bit

[Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>]

validate_section_offset() uses unsigned long local variable to
add/store shdr->sh_offset and shdr->sh_size on all platforms.
unsigned long is too short when sh_offset is Elf64_Off which
would be the case on 64bit ELF headers.

This problem was found while adding an error message to print
sh_offset and sh_size. If sh_offset + sh_size exceed the size
of the local variable, the checks for overflow and offset/size
being too large will not find the problem and call the section
offset valid. This failure might cause problems later on.

Fix the overflow problem using the right size local variable when
CONFIG_64BIT is defined.
