The ida_alloc_range() function expects an inclusive range, meaning both
the start and end values are valid allocation targets. Passing nr_ports
as the upper bound allows allocation of an ID equal to nr_ports, which
is out of bounds when used as an index into the port array.
Fix this by subtracting 1 from nr_ports in both calls to ida_alloc_range(),
ensuring the allocated ID stays within the valid range
[start, nr_ports - 1].
This prevents potential out-of-bounds access when the allocated ID is used
as an index.

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 reStructuredText 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.
