From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> find_next_iomem_res() finds an iomem resource that covers part of a range described by "start, end". All callers expect that range to be inclusive, i.e., both start and end are included, but find_next_iomem_res() doesn't handle the end address correctly. If it finds an iomem resource that contains exactly the end address, it skips it, e.g., if "start, end" is [0x0-0x10000] and there happens to be an iomem resource [mem 0x10000-0x10000] (the single byte at 0x10000), we skip it: find_next_iomem_res(...) { start = 0x0; end = 0x10000; for (p = next_resource(...)) { # p->start = 0x10000; # p->end = 0x10000; # we *should* return this resource, but this condition is false: if ((p->end >= start) && (p->start < end)) break; Adjust find_next_iomem_res() so it allows a resource that includes the single byte at the end of the range. This is a corner case that we probably don't see in practice.
