UDF code is not really ready to handle extents larger that 1GB. This is
the easy way to forbid creating those.

Also truncation code did not count with the case when there are no
extents in the file and we are extending the file.

sctp_make_abort_user() now takes the msg_len along with the msg
so that we don't have to recalculate the bytes in iovec.
It also uses memcpy_fromiovec() so that we don't go beyond the
length allocated.

It is good to have this fix even if verify_iovec() is fixed to
return error on overflow.

While helping someone to submit a patch to the stable branch, I noticed
that the stable branch is not listed in the MAINTAINERS file.  This was
after I went there to look for the email addresses for the stable branch
list (stable@kernel.org).

This patch adds the stable branch to the maintainers file so that people
can find where to send patches when they have a fix for the stable team.
