Return the Root Complex/Named Component memory address size limit as an
inclusive limit value, rather than an exclusive size.  This saves us
having to special-case 64-bit overflow, and simplifies our caller too.

The old code handled 'ncomp->memory_address_limit >= 64' -- why is it safe
to drop that? You mention it in the cover letter, so clearly I'm missing
something!

Because an unsigned shift by 64 or more generates 0 (modulo 2^64), thus
subtracting 1 results in the correct all-bits-set value for an inclusive
64-bit limit.

Oh, I'd have thought you'd have gotten one of those "left shift count >=
width of type" warnings if you did that.

I think you'll get a UBSAN splat, but here the compiler doesn't know what
'ncomp->memory_address_limit' will be and so doesn't produce a compile-time
warning.

Regardless, it's undefined behaviour.

Urgh, you're right... I double-checked 6.5.7.4 in the standard but managed to miss 6.5.7.3. So yeah, even though "4 << 62" or "2 << 63" are well-defined here, "1 << 64" isn't, dang. Thanks, funky old ISAs which did weird things for crazy large shifts and have no relevance to this code :(

Cheers,
Robin.
