The size of /dev/mem was limited to the lower half of the 64bit address range. This is unfortunate since on some architectures (MIPS64, namely) the upper half contains meaningful addresses. We can't just set /dev/mem to its real size since that's bigger than the maximum loff_t. Set the DEVFS_IS_CHARACTER_DEV flag instead for /dev/mem which will cause the size checks in lseek and friends to be bypassed. Also fix the size the memory device is registered with. We used to set the size to ~0, but the real size is one higher. To do this explicitly register the device with specifying the end address rather than the size. This will make /dev/mem appear with filesize 0, but so does /dev/zero already.
