[lvc-project] [PATCH v2 1/2] USB: sisusbvga: Fix integer overflow in sisusb_clear_vram

The boundary check in sisusb_clear_vram():

    if (address + length > sisusb->vrambase + sisusb->vramsize)
        length = sisusb->vrambase + sisusb->vramsize - address;

is subject to unsigned 32-bit integer overflow. When address is close to
UINT32_MAX and length is non-trivial, their sum wraps around and the
guard evaluates incorrectly, allowing the check to be bypassed.

The overflow condition requires length > UINT32_MAX - address. Since
address belongs to [vrambase; vrambase + vramsize) where vrambase is
0xd0000000, and length comes from userspace via SUCMD_CLRSCR as a 24-bit
value (max 0xFFFFFF), overflow is only reachable when sisusb->vramsize
exceeds 1 GiB. A compromised USB device can return an arbitrary value for
sisusb->vramsize via SR[0x14], making this condition reachable.

Use check_add_overflow() to detect the overflow explicitly and return 1.
This ensures the driver correctly rejects invalid parameters instead of
proceeding with wrapped-around values.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace.
Tested with 'USB Gadget Tests'[1]:

$ TEST=sisusbvga-fops-svace-int-overflow
$ echo $TEST > tests/list.txt && make && sudo ./check.sh
