When adapting memory accounting and allocation sizes below where you replace
sizeof(struct hlist_head) with sizeof(struct bucket), is there a reason why
you don't update the overflow checks along with it?

[...]
         /* prevent zero size kmalloc and check for u32 overflow */
         if (htab->n_buckets == 0 ||
             htab->n_buckets > U32_MAX / sizeof(struct hlist_head))
                 goto free_htab;

         if ((u64) htab->n_buckets * sizeof(struct hlist_head) +
             (u64) htab->elem_size * htab->map.max_entries >=
             U32_MAX - PAGE_SIZE)
                 /* make sure page count doesn't overflow */
                 goto free_htab;
[...]
