If we have a HIGHMEM system with a large folio, 'offset' may be larger
than PAGE_SIZE, and so min_t will cap at 'len' instead of the intended
end-of-page. That can overflow into the next page which is likely to be
unmapped and fault, but could theoretically copy the wrong data.

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.
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.
