3.8.13.18 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dave Young <dyoung@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit a7f84f03f660d93574ac88835d056c0d6468aebe upstream.
Current code check boot service region with kernel text region by:
start+size >= __pa_symbol(_text)
The end of the above region should be start + size - 1 instead.
I see this problem in ovmf + Fedora 19 grub boot:
text start: 1000000 md start: 800000 md size: 800000
