It is intended to refer back to the definitions:

 *  start/end
 *     An half-open range, e.g. [0,0) refers to no VA.
 *  start/last
 *     An inclusive closed range, e.g. [0,0] refers to the VA 0

Where aperture_start/aperture_end doesn't follow that standard.

	 * cases. Saturate instead of truncate the end if the types are smaller
	 * than the top range. aperture_end should be called aperture_last.
	 */

Maybe?

Sure

Got the rest, thanks
