When an MTRR entry is inclusive to a requested range, i.e. the start and end of the request are not within the MTRR entry range but the range contains the MTRR entry entirely: range_start ... [mtrr_start ... mtrr_end] ... range_end __mtrr_type_lookup() ignores such a case because both start_state and end_state are set to zero. This bug can cause the following issues: 1) reserve_memtype() tracks an effective memory type in case a request type is WB (ex. /dev/mem blindly uses WB). Missing to track with its effective type causes a subsequent request to map the same range with the effective type to fail. 2) pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() check if a requested range has any overlap with MTRRs. Missing to detect an overlap may cause a performance penalty or undefined behavior. This patch fixes the bug by adding a new flag, 'inclusive', to detect the inclusive case. This case is then handled in the same way as end_state:1 since the first region is the same. With this fix, __mtrr_type_lookup() handles the inclusive case properly.
