Subject: [130/272] ext4: fix trimming of a single group

2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

commit ca6e909f9bebe709bc65a3ee605ce32969db0452 upstream.

When ext4_trim_fs() is called to trim a part of a single group, the
logic will wrongly set last block of the interval to 'len' instead
of 'first_block + len'. Thus a shorter interval is possibly trimmed.
Fix it.
