ring-buffer: Cap static ring buffer nr_pages
Static ring buffers (i.e. persistent, user-mapped and remote) rely on
the bpage::id field. The number of pages for those ring buffers must fit
into that variable. Enforce this limit on ring buffer creation or
user-mapping.
While at it, prevent nr_pages underflow when allocating a persistent
buffer.
