VA blocks are currently stored in an inconsistent way. Sometimes block
end is inclusive, sometimes exclusive. This leads to wrong size
calculations in certain cases, plus could lead to a segmentation fault
in case mapping process fails in the middle and we try to roll it back.
Need to make this consistent - start inclusive till end inclusive.
For example, the regions table may now look like this:
0x0000 - 0x1fff : allocated
0x2000 - 0x2fff : free
0x3000 - 0x3fff : allocated

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.
