The old code used this calculation to print the limit only (in a wrong way), let's recap: Assume MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS=32 max_phys = (1ULL << (32 + 1)) - 1 = 0x1ffffffffull; Ehm, these are 33 bit. OTOH, old code checked for if (max_addr >> MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) { Which makes sense, because 0x1ffffffffull >> 32 = 1 results in "true", meaning it's to big, while 0xffffffffull >> 32 = 0 correctly results in "false", meaning the address is fine. So, this should just be const u64 max_phys = 1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS; (similarly as calculated in virito-mem code, or in kernel/resource.c)
Should this be 1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - 1 instead ? Currently there are three usage for this variable in the function. - if (mhp_range.start > max_phys) - mhp_range.end = min_t(u64, mhp_range.end, max_phys) - mhp_range.end = max_phys mhp_range.end being always inclusive on the higher end and could be maximum (1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - 1) which is 0xFFFFFFFF instead of 0x100000000 when (1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) is followed for a 32 bit system. This seems consistent with the default fallback (range.end = -1ULL) defined above.
