linux/generate-cve-exclusions: fix mishandling of boundary values

affected_versions in kernel_cves.json does not mean "first affected version
to last affected version" but actually "first affected version to fixed
version". Therefore, the variable names, conditional expressions, and
CVE_STATUS descriptions should be fixed.

For example, when the script was run against v6.1, if affected_versions was
"xxx to 6.1", the output was "cpe-stable-backport: Backported in 6.1", but
this should be "fixed-version: Fixed from version 6.1".
