Subject: [PATCH] mtdchar: fix overflows in adjustment of `count`
Git-commit: 6c6bc9ea84d0008024606bf5ba10519e20d851bf
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc1
References: bsc#1051510

The first checks in mtdchar_read() and mtdchar_write() attempt to limit
`count` such that `*ppos + count <= mtd->size`. However, they ignore the
possibility of `*ppos > mtd->size`, allowing the calculation of `count` to
wrap around. `mtdchar_lseek()` prevents seeking beyond mtd->size, but the
pread/pwrite syscalls bypass this.

I haven't found any codepath on which this actually causes dangerous
behavior, but it seems like a sensible change anyway.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
