commit 0cbae9e24fa7d6c6e9f828562f084da82217a0c5 upstream.
While examining is_ucounts_overlimit and reading the various messages
I realized that is_ucounts_overlimit fails to deal with counts that
may have wrapped.
Being wrapped should be a transitory state for counts and they should
never be wrapped for long, but it can happen so handle it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
