Adrian Hunter 0c8a2ef120 perf: Fix default aux_watermark calculation
[ Upstream commit 43deb76b19663a96ec2189d8f4eb9a9dc2d7623f ]

The default aux_watermark is half the AUX area buffer size. In general,
on a 64-bit architecture, the AUX area buffer size could be a bigger than
fits in a 32-bit type, but the calculation does not allow for that
possibility.

However the aux_watermark value is recorded in a u32, so should not be
more than U32_MAX either.

Fix by doing the calculation in a correctly sized type, and limiting the
result to U32_MAX.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
