I would either make this 0 or ULLONG_MAX - 1 (see below).

Now it looks like we're intentionally falling through. A comment
should be included to indicate it.

I find the manipulation of entry->addr +/- 1 confusing; it should just
be mem_limit that is adjusted:
end = min(entry->size + entry->addr, mem_limit + 1);
And maybe to avoid mem_limit being giant by default, maybe have "0" be special?
cur_entry.addr = entry->addr;
if (mem_limit) {
unsigned long end = min(entry->size + entry->addr, mem_limit + 1);
if (entry->addr > end)
return;
cur_entry.size = end - entry->addr;
} else {
cur_entry.size = entry->size;
}
or something... and maybe move the whole thing earlier so other tests
that examine entry->size are checked with the new adjusted value.
