If using "vend >= begin" to judge if two memory regions intersects, vend
should be the end of the memory region, so it should be "virt + size -1"
instead of "virt + size".
The wrong determination of the end triggers the misreporting as below when
the dma debug function "check_for_illegal_area" calls memory_intersects to
check if the dma region intersects with stext region.

Calltrace (stext is at 0x80100000):
