Jeff Moyer aeef8b5089 x86/pat: Pass valid address to sanitize_phys() 
The end address passed to memtype_reserve() is handed directly to
sanitize_phys().  However, end is exclusive and sanitize_phys() expects
an inclusive address.  If end falls at the end of the physical address
space, sanitize_phys() will return 0.  This can result in drivers
failing to load, and the following warning:

 WARNING: CPU: 26 PID: 749 at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:354 reserve_memtype+0x262/0x450
 reserve_memtype failed: [mem 0x3ffffff00000-0xffffffffffffffff], req uncached-minus

 mpt3sas_cm0: unable to map adapter memory! or resource not found
 mpt3sas_cm0: failure at drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_scsih.c:10597/_scsih_probe()!

Fix this by passing the inclusive end address to sanitize_phys().

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
