There are some issues here. param->stride can be -2^31 so actual_stride will
be probably -2^31. You introduced a possible division by zero (param->height == 0).
Do you know who validate the structure size? I don't see any check on the code.
Looks like the data pointer is coming from userspace untested.
An easiest way to do these check is use 64 bit arithmetic so something like

   u64 actual_stride, size;

   actual_stride = param->stride < 0 ? -param->stride : param->stride;
   size = actual_stride * param->height + actual_stride;
   if (size > INT_MAX)
       return -EINVAL;

take into account that usually division is quite slow so on many system even if 32 bit
the multiplication is faster. And if is not faster you are creating a surface so
is not really a fast path.

You should also check if the stride computed from width and format fit into the stride
provided.

Do you know why actual_stride * param->height is not enough? Why an extra line?
