block: add overflow checks for Amiga partition support
The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB. Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to 2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t. Bail out if sector addresses overflow 32 bits on kernels without LBD support. This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by the RDB author, Joanne Dow <jdow@earthlink.net>. A patch had been discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 in this series). This patch adds additional error checking and warning messages.
