commit 9b80e4c4ddaca3501177ed41e49d0928ba2122a8 upstream

Since the destination variable of the check_*_overflow() helpers will
contain a wrapped value on failure, it would be best to make sure callers
really did check the return result of the helper. Adjust the macros to use
a bool-wrapping static inline that is marked with __must_check. This means
the macros can continue to have their type-agnostic behavior while gaining
the function attribute (that cannot be applied directly to macros).

commit 4578be130a6470d85ff05b13b75a00e6224eeeeb upstream

A 'false' return means the value was safely set, so the comment should
say 'true' for when it is not considered safe.

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

When the check_[op]_overflow() helpers were introduced, all arguments
were required to be the same type to make the fallback macros simpler.
However, now that the fallback macros have been removed[1], it is fine
to allow mixed types, which makes using the helpers much more useful,
as they can be used to test for type-based overflows (e.g. adding two
large ints but storing into a u8), as would be handy in the drm core[2].

Remove the restriction, and add additional self-tests that exercise
some of the mixed-type overflow cases, and double-check for accidental
macro side-effects.
