Subject: [PATCH -v2] ext4: avoid arithemetic overflow that can trigger a BUG

A maliciously crafted file system can cause an overflow when the
results of a 64-bit calculation is stored into a 32-bit length
parameter.

This is a revised version which checks for overflows when caluclating
first_block and last_block.  This catches more overflow scenarios than
just checking for an overflow when calculating map.m_len.
