[PATCH 2/5] CVE-2025-26724: fs: cramfs: fix malloc(size + constant) buffer overflow issues

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

The pattern malloc(size + constant) is dangerous when size can be
manipulated by an attacker. In that case 'size' can be manipulated
in a way that 'size + constant' is 0 due to integer overflow. The
result is a zero sized buffer to which is then data written to.

Avoid this by using size_add() instead.
