Subject: [PATCH] Fix generic_block_fiemap for files bigger than 4GB
Because of an integer overflow on start_blk, various kind of wrong results
would be returned by the generic_block_fiemap handler, such as no extents
when there is a 4GB+ hole at the beginning of the file, or wrong fe_logical
when an extent starts after the first 4GB.
