commit 4ab42d78e37a294ac7bc56901d563c642e03c4ae upstream.

Currently slhc_init() treats out-of-range values of rslots and tslots
as equivalent to 0, except that if tslots is too large it will
dereference a null pointer (CVE-2015-7799).

Add a range-check at the top of the function and make it return an
ERR_PTR() on error instead of NULL.  Change the callers accordingly.

Compile-tested only.

Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h preparatory to splitting and killing
it.  Performed with the following command:

perl -p -i -e 's!^#\s*include\s*&lt;asm/system[.]h&gt;.*\n!!' `grep -Irl '^#\s*include\s*&lt;asm/system[.]h&gt;' *`

alloc failures use dump_stack so emitting an additional
out-of-memory message is an unnecessary duplication.

Remove the allocation failure messages.
