    Subject[PATCH 3.16 114/233] drivers: char: mem: Fix wraparound check to allow mappings up to the end
    3.16.48-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Julius Werner <jwerner@chromium.org>

    commit 32829da54d9368103a2f03269a5120aa9ee4d5da upstream.

    A recent fix to /dev/mem prevents mappings from wrapping around the end
    of physical address space. However, the check was written in a way that
    also prevents a mapping reaching just up to the end of physical address
    space, which may be a valid use case (especially on 32-bit systems).
    This patch fixes it by checking the last mapped address (instead of the
    first address behind that) for overflow.
