Works for dmabuf

This check should include the vm_pgoff, like that:

if (check_add_overflow(vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT, vm_size, &vm_end))
	return -EINVAL;

if (vm_end > vram->vram_node.size)
	return -EINVAL;

The size and offset are actually validated before this code is reached,
but doesn't hurt to keep the check around.

I corrected the check and applied patch to misc-next, thanks!
