crypto: drbg - backport "fix maximum value checks on 32 bit systems"
This is a backport of commit b9347aff. This backport is needed as without it the code will crash on 32-bit systems. The maximum values for additional input string or generated blocks is larger than 1<<32. To ensure a sensible value on 32 bit systems, return SIZE_MAX on 32 bit systems. This value is lower than the maximum allowed values defined in SP800-90A. The standard allow lower maximum values, but not larger values. SIZE_MAX - 1 is used for drbg_max_addtl to allow drbg_healthcheck_sanity to check the enforcement of the variable without wrapping.
