IB/core: don't disallow registering region starting at 0x0
commit 66578b0b upstream. In a call to ib_umem_get(), if address is 0x0 and size is already page aligned, check added in commit 8494057a ("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow in ib_umem_get address arithmetic") will refuse to register a memory region that could otherwise be valid (provided vm.mmap_min_addr sysctl and mmap_low_allowed SELinux knobs allow userspace to map something at address 0x0). This patch allows back such registration: ib_umem_get() should probably don't care of the base address provided it can be pinned with get_user_pages(). There's two possible overflows, in (addr + size) and in PAGE_ALIGN(addr + size), this patch keep ensuring none of them happen while allowing to pin memory at address 0x0. Anyway, the case of size equal 0 is no more (partially) handled as 0-length memory region are disallowed by an earlier check.
