If 'list_limit' is set to a very high value, 'lsize' computation could
overflow if 'head.count' is big enough.

In such a case, udmabuf_create() will access to memory beyond 'list'.

Use size_mul() to saturate the value, and have memdup_user() fail.

How about this, and we get rid of `lsize`:

Keeping or removing lsize is mostly a matter of taste, I think.

Using sizeof(*list) is better.

Let see if there are some other comments, and I'll send a v2.

Thanks for the feed-back.
