Subject: [PATCH 4.9 50/78] iomap: fix integer truncation issues in the zeroing and dirtying helpers

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de>

commit e28ae8e428fefe2facd72cea9f29906ecb9c861d upstream.

Fix the min_t calls in the zeroing and dirtying helpers to perform the
comparisms on 64-bit types, which prevents them from incorrectly
being truncated, and larger zeroing operations being stuck in a never
ending loop.

Special thanks to Markus Stockhausen for spotting the bug.
