linux-user: Fix signed math overflow in brk() syscall

Fix the math overflow when calculating the new_malloc_size.

new_host_brk_page and brk_page are unsigned integers. If userspace
reduces the heap, new_host_brk_page is lower than brk_page which results
in a huge positive number (but should actually be negative).

Fix it by adding a proper check and as such make the code more readable.
