mm/vmalloc.c: fix an overflow bug in alloc_vmap_area()
When searching a vmap area in the vmalloc space, we use (addr + size - 1) to check if the value is less than addr, which is an overflow. But we assign (addr + size) to vmap_area->va_end. So if we come across the below case: (addr + size - 1) : not overflow (addr + size) : overflow we will assign an overflow value (e.g 0) to vmap_area->va_end, And this will trigger BUG in __insert_vmap_area, causing system panic. So using (addr + size) to check the overflow should be the correct behaviour, not (addr + size - 1).
