[ Upstream commit c5f31c655bcc01b6da53b836ac951c1556245305 ]

The integer overflow is descripted with following codes:
> 317 static comp_t encode_comp_t(u64 value)
> 318 {
> 319 int exp, rnd;
......
> 341 exp <<= MANTSIZE;
> 342 exp += value;
> 343 return exp;
> 344 }

Currently comp_t is defined as type of '__u16', but the variable 'exp' is
type of 'int', so overflow would happen when variable 'exp' in line 343 is
greater than 65535.
