This is pending to get into the upstream kernel.
This fixes a bug in the upstream kernel which was added to stable some
time ago.

Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Fix bounds check virt_addr_valid
The bounds check used the uninitialized variable vaddr, it should use
the given parameter kaddr instead. When using the uninitialized value
the compiler assumed it to be 0 and optimized this function to just
return 0 in all cases.
This should make the function check the range of the given address and
only do the page map check in case it is in the expected range of
virtual addresses.
