When specifying a 2GB AUX buffer, the ETR driver ends up allocating only
a 1MB buffer instead:
# echo 'file coresight-tmc-etr.c +p' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
# perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0,timestamp=0/u -C 0 -m ,2G -- test
coresight tmc_etr0: allocated buffer of size 1024KB in mode 0
The page index is an 'int' type, and shifting it by PAGE_SHIFT overflows
when the resulting value exceeds 2GB. This produces a negative value,
causing the driver to fall back to the minimum buffer size (1MB).
Cast the page index to a wider type to accommodate large buffer sizes.
Also fix a similar issue in the buffer offset calculation.
