Pass "end - 1" instead of "end" when walking the interval tree in
hugetlb_vmdelete_list() to fix an inclusive vs. exclusive bug. The two
callers that pass a non-zero "end" treat it as exclusive, whereas the
interval tree iterator expects an inclusive "last". E.g. punching a
hole in a file that precisely matches the size of a single hugepage,
with a vma starting right on the boundary, will result in
unmap_hugepage_range() being called twice, with the second call having
start==end.
The off-by-one error doesn't cause functional problems as
__unmap_hugepage_range() turns into a massive nop due to
short-circuiting its for-loop on "address < end". But, the mmu_notifier
invocations to invalid_range_{start,end}() are passed a bogus zero-sized
range, which may be unexpected behavior for secondary MMUs.

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.
