x86: Fix ioremap off by one BUG



Jean Delvare's machine triggered this BUG

acpi_os_map_memory phys ffff0000 size 65535
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:233!

with ACPI in the backtrace.

Adding some debugging output showed that ACPI calls

acpi_os_map_memory phys ffff0000 size 65535

And ioremap/PAT does this check in 32bit, so addr+size wraps and the BUG
in reserve_memtype() triggers incorrectly.

        BUG_ON(start >= end); /* end is exclusive */

But reserve_memtype already uses u64:

int reserve_memtype(u64 start, u64 end,

so the 32bit truncation must happen in the caller. Presumably in ioremap
when it passes this information to reserve_memtype().

This patch does this computation in 64bit.
