'first_minor' represents the starting minor number of disks, and 'minors' represents the number of partitions in the device. Neither of them can be greater than MINORMASK + 1. Commite338924bd0("block: check minor range in device_add_disk()") only added the check of 'first_minor + minors'. However, their sum might be less than MINORMASK but their values are wrong. Complete the checks now.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
