If, on a 64 bit system, a vCPU ID is provided that has the upper 32 bits
set to a non-zero value, it may get accepted if the truncated to 32 bits
integer value is below KVM_MAX_VCPU_IDS and 'max_vcpus'. This feels very
wrong and triggered the reporting logic of PaX's SIZE_OVERFLOW plugin.
Instead of silently truncating and accepting such values, pass the full
value to kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() and make the existing limit checks
return an error.
Even if this is a userland ABI breaking change, no sane userland could
have ever relied on that behaviour.
