H A Dunaccepted_memory.c589959bf Fri Nov 03 10:13:54 CDT 2023 Michael Roth <michael.roth@amd.com> efi/unaccepted: Fix off-by-one when checking for overlapping ranges

[ Upstream commit 01b1e3ca0e5ce47bbae8217d47376ad01b331b07 ]

When a task needs to accept memory it will scan the accepting_list
to see if any ranges already being processed by other tasks overlap
with its range. Due to an off-by-one in the range comparisons, a task
might falsely determine that an overlapping range is being accepted,
leading to an unnecessary delay before it begins processing the range.

Fix the off-by-one in the range comparison to prevent this and slightly
improve performance.
