Subject: Fix cd_header offset overflow with large pfn
Upstream: merged (expected 1.6.8)
Git-commit: 6e4b2dfaed5e5e5c617e0e45f969c1f571c13e27

In function write_kdump_pages_and_bitmap_cyclic(), cd_header->offset is
calculated by the following formula:

cd_header->offset
        = (DISKDUMP_HEADER_BLOCKS + dh->sub_hdr_size + dh->bitmap_blocks)
        * dh->block_size;

However, the variables of the right side are only int and unsigned int,
so if dh->bitmap_blocks is very large, it causes an interger overflow.

As a result, makedumpfile created a broken vmcore in a system with a
physical address range from 0x602770ecf000 to 0x6027ffffffff, and the
crash utility failed during session initialization, ending with the
error message "crash: vmlinux and vmcore do not match!".
