commit b1cd1b65af upstream.
size can potentially hold an overflowed value if its assigned expression
is left unchecked, leading to a smaller than needed allocation when
vla_group_size() is used by callers to allocate memory.
To fix this, add a test for saturation before declaring variables and an
overflow check to (n) * sizeof(type).
If the expression results in overflow, vla_group_size() will return SIZE_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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
