Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: ccp - Fix snp_filter_reserved_mem_regions() off-by-one
Sashiko notes:
> regarding the bounds check in snp_filter_reserved_mem_regions()

> If range_list->num_elements is 255, 255 * 16 + 8 = 4088, which is <= 4096.
> Writing range->base (8 bytes) fills 4088-4095, but writing range->page_count

Fix this by accounting for the entry about to be written to, in addition to
the entries that are already allocated.
