random: use a tighter cap in credit_entropy_bits_safe()
commit 9f886f4d1d292442b2f22a0a33321eae821bde40 upstream. This fixes a harmless UBSAN where root could potentially end up causing an overflow while bumping the entropy_total field (which is ignored once the entropy pool has been initialized, and this generally is completed during the boot sequence). This is marginal for the stable kernel series, but it's a really trivial patch, and it fixes UBSAN warning that might cause security folks to get overly excited for no reason.
