Hao Qin reported an integer overflow possibility with signed and 

unsigned numbers in the ring-buffer code.
 
   https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118001
 
 At first I did not think this was too much of an issue, because the
 overflow would be caught later when either too much data was allocated
 or it would trigger RB_WARN_ON() which shuts down the ring buffer.
 
 But looking closer into it, I found that the right settings could bypass
 the checks and crash the kernel. Luckily, this is only accessible
 by root.
 
 The first fix is to convert all the variables into long, such that
 we don't get into issues between 32 bit variables being assigned 64 bit
 ones. This fixes the RB_WARN_ON() triggering.
 
 The next fix is to get rid of a duplicate DIV_ROUND_UP() that when called
 twice with the right value, can cause a kernel crash.
 
 The first DIV_ROUND_UP() is to normalize the input and it is checked
 against the minimum allowable value. But then DIV_ROUND_UP() is called
 again, which can overflow due to the (a + b - 1)/b, logic. The first
 called upped the value, the second can overflow (with the +b part).
 
 The second call to DIV_ROUND_UP() came in via a second change a while ago
 and the code is cleaned up to remove it.
