Hello plaisthos,

I'd like you to do a code review.
Please visit

    http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/1436?usp=email

to review the following change.


Change subject: buffer: Change limits for array_mult_safe
......................................................................

buffer: Change limits for array_mult_safe

- Lower the limit to 1GB on 32bit systems.
  The limit of 4GB-1 makes no sense on systems that usually
  don't allow a single process to allocate anything near to
  this limit.
- Increate the limit from 4GB-1 to 4GB on other systems. It
  makes no difference in protection but makes it much easier
  to use the limit in other contexts, e.g. if dividing it.
