Catalin Marinas 488b5b9eca mm: kmemleak: fix upper boundary check for physical address objects
Memblock allocations are registered by kmemleak separately, based on their
physical address.  During the scanning stage, it checks whether an object
is within the min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn boundaries and ignores it
otherwise.

With the recent addition of __percpu pointer leak detection (commit
6c99d4eb7c ("kmemleak: enable tracking for percpu pointers")), kmemleak
started reporting leaks in setup_zone_pageset() and
setup_per_cpu_pageset().  These were caused by the node_data[0] object
(initialised in alloc_node_data()) ending on the PFN_PHYS(max_low_pfn)
boundary.  The non-strict upper boundary check introduced by commit
84c3262991 ("mm: kmemleak: check physical address when scan") causes the
pg_data_t object to be ignored (not scanned) and the __percpu pointers it
contains to be reported as leaks.

Make the max_low_pfn upper boundary check strict when deciding whether to
ignore a physical address object and not scan it.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
