Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] arm64: Improve kernel address detection of __is_lm_address()
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2021 15:56:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210122155642.23187-2-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210122155642.23187-1-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com>

Currently, the __is_lm_address() check just masks out the top 12 bits
of the address, but if they are 0, it still yields a true result.
This has as a side effect that virt_addr_valid() returns true even for
invalid virtual addresses (e.g. 0x0).

Improve the detection checking that it's actually a kernel address
starting at PAGE_OFFSET.
