Liang Wang 854f32648b lib: use PFN_PHYS() in devmem_is_allowed() 
The physical address may exceed 32 bits on 32-bit systems with more than
32 bits of physcial address.  Use PFN_PHYS() in devmem_is_allowed(), or
the physical address may overflow and be truncated.

We found this bug when mapping a high addresses through devmem tool,
when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is enabled on the ARM with ARM_LPAE and devmem
is used to map a high address that is not in the iomem address range, an
unexpected error indicating no permission is returned.

This bug was initially introduced from v2.6.37, and the function was
moved to lib in v5.11.

Fixes: 087aaffcdf ("ARM: implement CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM by disabling access to RAM via /dev/mem")
Fixes: 527701eda5 ("lib: Add a generic version of devmem_is_allowed()")

README 

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
