No, I'm misreading it - it's unsigned * unsigned long - unsigned vs. size_t.
On arm it ends up with unsigned long vs. unsigned int; functionally it *is*
OK (both have the same range there), but it triggers the tests.  Try 

	return min_t(size_t, nr * PAGE_SIZE - offset, maxsize);

there (both places).

Al, going back to sleep - 4 hours is not enough...
