fs/kernel_read_file: allow to read files up-to ssize_t

Patch series "Allow to kexec with initramfs larger than 2G", v2.

Currently, the largest initramfs that is supported by kexec_file_load()
syscall is 2G.

This is because kernel_read_file() returns int, and is limited to INT_MAX
or 2G.

On the other hand, there are kexec based boot loaders (i.e.  u-root), that
may need to boot netboot images that might be larger than 2G.

The first patch changes the return type from int to ssize_t in
kernel_read_file* functions.

The second patch increases the maximum initramfs file size to 4G.

Tested: verified that can kexec_file_load() works with 4G initramfs
on x86_64.


This patch (of 2):

Currently, the maximum file size that is supported is 2G.  This may be too
small in some cases.  For example, kexec_file_load() system call loads
initramfs.  In some netboot cases initramfs can be rather large.

Allow to use up-to ssize_t bytes.  The callers still can limit the maximum
file size via buf_size.
