Breno Leitao 70165dc3ec crypto: sha256 - fix crash at kexec
Loading a large (~2.1G) files with kexec crashes the host with when
running:

  # kexec --load kernel --initrd initrd_with_2G_or_more

  UBSAN: signed-integer-overflow in ./include/crypto/sha256_base.h:64:19
  34152083 * 64 cannot be represented in type 'int'
  ...
  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff9fffff83b624c0
  sha256_update (lib/crypto/sha256.c:137)
  crypto_sha256_update (crypto/sha256_generic.c:40)
  kexec_calculate_store_digests (kernel/kexec_file.c:769)
  __se_sys_kexec_file_load (kernel/kexec_file.c:397 kernel/kexec_file.c:332)
  ...

(Line numbers based on commit da274362a7 ("Linux 6.12.49")

This started happening after commit f4da7afe07
("kexec_file: increase maximum file size to 4G") that landed in v6.0,
which increased the file size for kexec.

This is not happening upstream (v6.16+), given that `block` type was
upgraded from "int" to "size_t" in commit 74a43a2cf5 ("crypto:
lib/sha256 - Move partial block handling out")

Upgrade the block type similar to the commit above, avoiding hitting the
overflow.

This patch is only suitable for the stable tree, and before 6.16, which
got commit 74a43a2cf5 ("crypto: lib/sha256 - Move partial block
handling out"). This is not required before f4da7afe07 ("kexec_file:
increase maximum file size to 4G"). In other words, this fix is required
between versions v6.0 and v6.16.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
