Subject: [PATCH 4/8] lib/ext2fs/block.c: Fix undefined behavior in
 block_iterate_tind()

The intermediate result of limit*limit*limit is too big to fit in a
32-bit integer, causing undefined behavior. Fix by casting one of the
limits to the result type of e2_blkcnt_t.

Caught using clang -fsanitize=undefined.
