3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Biggers ebiggers@google.com
commit 9903a91c763ecdae333a04a9d89d79d2b8966503 upstream.
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.
