pefile_digest_pe_contents() computes the trailing-data hash length as
pelen - (hashed_bytes + certs_size). A crafted PE can make the addition
exceed pelen, causing the unsigned subtraction to underflow to ~4 GiB.
This is passed to crypto_shash_update() which reads out of bounds and
panics on unmapped vmalloc guard pages.

 Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

Validate that the addition does not overflow and the result does not
exceed pelen before the subtraction. Return -ELIBBAD on failure.
