lib/scatterlist: Avoid potential scatterlist entry overflow
Since the scatterlist length field is an unsigned int, make sure that sg_alloc_table_from_pages does not overflow it while coalescing pages to a single entry. v2: Drop reference to future use. Use UINT_MAX. v3: max_segment must be page aligned. v4: Do not rely on compiler to optimise out the rounddown. (Joonas Lahtinen) v5: Simplified loops and use post-increments rather than pre-increments. Use PAGE_MASK and fix comment typo. (Andy Shevchenko) v6: Commit spelling fix.
