The patch titled Subject: pipe: fix off-by-one error when checking buffer limits has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was pipe-fix-off-by-one-error-when-checking-buffer-limits.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------ From: Eric Biggers ebiggers@google.com Subject: pipe: fix off-by-one error when checking buffer limits
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.
