Subject[PATCH 4.9 65/88] pipe: fix off-by-one error when checking buffer limits
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

commit 9903a91c763ecdae333a04a9d89d79d2b8966503 upstream.

With pipe-user-pages-hard set to 'N', users were actually only allowed up
to 'N - 1' buffers; and likewise for pipe-user-pages-soft.

Fix this to allow up to 'N' buffers, as would be expected.
