Linux kernel source tree
The !CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP version of ioport_map uses MMIO_UPPER_LIMIT to
prevent users from making I/O accesses outside the expected I/O range -
however it erroneously treats MMIO_UPPER_LIMIT as a mask which is
contradictory to its other users.
The introduction of CONFIG_INDIRECT_PIO, which subtracts an arbitrary
amount from IO_SPACE_LIMIT to form MMIO_UPPER_LIMIT, results in ioport_map
mangling the given port rather than capping it.
We address this by aligning more closely with the CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP
implementation of ioport_map by using the comparison operator and
returning NULL where the port exceeds MMIO_UPPER_LIMIT. Though note that
we preserve the existing behavior of masking with IO_SPACE_LIMIT such that
we don't break existing buggy drivers that somehow rely on this masking.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
