In theory, ubytes is <= mbytes. So uchunk is always <= mchunk. If ubytes
is exhausted, while there's still remaining mbytes, then uchunk is 0,
there's still mchunk stepping forward. If I understand it correctly,
this is a good catch. Not sure if Eric has comment on this to confirm.

static int kimage_load_normal_segment(struct kimage *image,
                                         struct kexec_segment *segment)
{
......

                ptr += maddr & ~PAGE_MASK;
                mchunk = min_t(size_t, mbytes,
                                PAGE_SIZE - (maddr & ~PAGE_MASK));
                uchunk = min(ubytes, mchunk);
......}
