Bjorn Helgaas 85f996c36e x86/kexec: Correct KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_END off-by-one error
[ Upstream commit 51fbf14f25 ]

The only use of KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_END is as an argument to
walk_system_ram_res():

  int crash_load_segments(struct kimage *image)
  {
    ...
    walk_system_ram_res(KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_START, KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_END,
                        image, determine_backup_region);

walk_system_ram_res() expects "start, end" arguments that are inclusive,
i.e., the range to be walked includes both the start and end addresses.

KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_END was previously defined as (640 * 1024UL), which is the
first address *past* the desired 0-640KB range.

Define KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC_END as (640 * 1024UL - 1) so the KEXEC_BACKUP_SRC
region is [0-0x9ffff], not [0-0xa0000].

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
