As we already applied a workaround for the off-by-1 issue,
it's good to add extra message "applying workaround" to
make people less uneasy to see such message in the boot log.

This is not correct. The workaround is only applied if rid_in ==
map->input_base, so better to print a second line after the 'return'
below that is only reached in that particular case.

Obvious I'm wrong, I will update this patch, thanks a lot!

By the way, how about the print below? Should I add something more?

                if (rid_in != map->input_base)
                        return -ENXIO;
+
+ pr_err(FW_BUG "applying workaround for the conflicting mapping\n");

Thanks
Hanjun
