mm/memory.c: actually remap enough memory
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
For whatever reason, generic_access_phys() only remaps one page, but
actually allows to access arbitrary size.  It's quite easy to trigger
large reads, like printing out large structure with gdb, which leads to a
crash.  Fix it by remapping correct size.

Fixes: 28b2ee2 ("access_process_vm device memory infrastructure")
