Subject: [incomplete PATCH] ext4: avoid overflow in fiemap

A __u32 cannot hold the maximum number of blocks in a file. This may
lead to an overflow if a fiemap request has length = s_maxbytes.

I still get a segfault, I have to go through it again. This is just for
your information. I will work on it tomorrow.

The patch is to be applied after/at the end of the ext4 patch queue.
Appearently only fiemap uses ext4_ext_walk_space(). Therefore I changed
the semantics of the ext4_ext_walk_space() call. I hope this does not
introduce a new problem.

In the case that 1<<32 blocks are requested, but there are no allocated
extents, I return two gaps because, the length of a gap in the
ext4_ext_cache is a __u32 again.

Regards
Leonard
