One of our benchmarks running in (Google-internal) CI pushes data
through the ringbuf faster htan than userspace is able to consume
it. In this case it seems we're actually able to get >INT_MAX entries
in a single ring_buffer__consume() call. ASAN detected that cnt
overflows in this case.
Fix by using 64-bit counter internally and then capping the result to
INT_MAX before converting to the int return type. Do the same for
the ring_buffer__poll().
Fixes: bf99c936f9 (libbpf: Add BPF ring buffer support)

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.
