zhaoyang ae0bec785d ARM: 8901/1: add a criteria for pfn_valid of arm
[ Upstream commit 5b3efa4f1479c91cb8361acef55f9c6662feba57 ]

pfn_valid can be wrong when parsing a invalid pfn whose phys address
exceeds BITS_PER_LONG as the MSB will be trimed when shifted.

The issue originally arise from bellowing call stack, which corresponding to
an access of the /proc/kpageflags from userspace with a invalid pfn parameter
and leads to kernel panic.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
