[PATCH v4 09/12] NTB: epf: Make db_valid_mask cover only real doorbell bits

From: Koichiro Den

Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 22:53:50 EST


ndev->db_count includes an unused doorbell slot due to the legacy extra
offset in the peer doorbell path. db_valid_mask must cover only the real
doorbell bits and exclude the unused slot.

Set db_valid_mask to BIT_ULL(db_count - 1) - 1.

Changes since v3:
- Drop the post-init db_count lower-bound check; ntb_epf_init_isr()
already requests at least NTB_EPF_MIN_DB_COUNT + 1 vectors.
