proc: environ_read() make sure offset points to environment address range

Currently the following offset and environment address range check in
environ_read() of /proc/<pid>/environ is buggy:

  int this_len = mm->env_end - (mm->env_start + src);
  if (this_len <= 0)
    break;

Large or negative offsets on /proc/<pid>/environ converted to 'unsigned
long' may pass this check since '(mm->env_start + src)' can overflow and
'this_len' will be positive.

This can turn /proc/<pid>/environ to act like /proc/<pid>/mem since
(mm->env_start + src) will point and read from another VMA.

There are two fixes here plus some code cleaning:

1) Fix the overflow by checking if the offset that was converted to
   unsigned long will always point to the [mm->env_start, mm->env_end]
   address range.

2) Remove the truncation that was made to the result of the check,
   storing the result in 'int this_len' will alter its value and we can
   not depend on it.

For kernels that have commit b409e578d ("proc: clean up
/proc/<pid>/environ handling") which adds the appropriate ptrace check and
saves the 'mm' at ->open() time, this is not a security issue.

This patch is taken from the grsecurity patch since it was just made
available.
