Subject: [PATCH 4.9 44/78] xfs: fix quotacheck dquot id overflow infinite loop

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

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


From: Brian Foster <bfoster@...hat.com>

commit cfaf2d034360166e569a4929dd83ae9698bed856 upstream.

If a dquot has an id of U32_MAX, the next lookup index increment
overflows the uint32_t back to 0. This starts the lookup sequence
over from the beginning, repeats indefinitely and results in a
livelock.

Update xfs_qm_dquot_walk() to explicitly check for the lookup
overflow and exit the loop.
