| |
Currently, the __is_lm_address() check just masks out the top 12 bits of the address, but if they are 0, it still yields a true result. This has as a side effect that virt_addr_valid() returns true even for invalid virtual addresses (e.g. 0x0).
Improve the detection checking that it's actually a kernel address starting at PAGE_OFFSET.
