I think this correction actually wants to happen a couple of lines up in 
the definition:

	unsigned long max_dma_pfn = min(max_pfn, arm_dma_pfn_limit);

max_pfn is indeed an exclusive limit, but AFAICS arm_dma_pfn_limit is 
inclusive, so none of these "+1"s and "-1"s can be entirely right for 
both cases.
