powerpc/papr_scm: Fix an off-by-one check in papr_scm_meta_{get, set}
A validation check to prevent out of bounds read/write inside
functions papr_scm_meta_{get,set}() is off-by-one that prevent reads
and writes to the last byte of the label area.
This bug manifests as a failure to probe a dimm when libnvdimm is
unable to read the entire config-area as advertised by
ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE. This usually happens when there are large
number of namespaces created in the region backed by the dimm and the
label-index spans max possible config-area. An error of the form below
usually reported in the kernel logs:
[ 255.293912] nvdimm: probe of nmem0 failed with error -22
The patch fixes these validation checks there by letting libnvdimm
access the entire config-area.
Fixes: 53e80bd042773('powerpc/nvdimm: Add support for multibyte read/write for metadata')
