Subject: [PATCH 4/6][TAKE4] ext4: Extent overlap bugfix

This patch adds a check for overlap of extents and cuts short the
new extent to be inserted, if there is a chance of overlap.

Changelog:
---------
Changes from Take3 to Take4:
 - no change -
Changes from Take2 to Take3:
 1) Patch rebased to 2.6.22-rc1 kernel.
Changes from Take1 to Take2:
 1) As suggested by Andrew, a check for wrap though zero has been added.

Here is the new patch:
