[PATCH RESEND] early_ioremap has a fencepost error

[Alan Cox]

Can we get this into 2.6.27.x at some point as its a regression and a
crash on boot for some users moving from 2.6.26

early_ioremap: fix fencepost error

From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxx>

The x86 implementation of early_ioremap has an off by one error. If we get
an object which ends on the first byte of a page we undermap by one page and
this causes a crash on boot with the ASUS P5QL whose DMI table happens to fit
this alignment.

The size computation is currently

	last_addr = phys_addr + size - 1;
	npages = (PAGE_ALIGN(last_addr) - phys_addr)

(Consider a request for 1 byte at alignment 0...)

Closes #11693
