Without this\ncheck, when multiplication overflow occurs for nr_bits (e.g., when\nnr_words = 0x0400-0001, nr_bits becomes 64), stack corruption may occur\ndue to bpf_probe_read_kernel_common(..., nr_bytes = 0x2000-0008).\n\nFix it by limiting the maximum value of nr_words to 511. The value is\nderived from the current implementation of BPF memory allocator. To\nensure compatibility if the BPF memory allocator's size limitation\nchanges in the future, use the helper bpf_mem_alloc_check_size() to\ncheck whether nr_bytes is too larger. And return -E2BIG instead of\n-ENOMEM for oversized nr_bytes."
