Subject: [PATCH 4.14 117/211] fs/hfs/extent.c: fix array out of bounds read of array extent

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

[ Upstream commit 6c9a3f843a29d6894dfc40df338b91dbd78f0ae3 ]

Currently extent and index i are both being incremented causing an array
out of bounds read on extent[i].  Fix this by removing the extraneous
increment of extent.

: This is only triggered when deleting a file with a resource fork.  I
: may be wrong because the documentation isn't clear, but I don't think
: you can create those under linux.  So I guess nobody was testing them.

: > A disk space leak, perhaps?
:
: That's what it looks like in general.  hfs_free_extents() won't do
: anything if the block count doesn't add up, and the error will be
: ignored.  Now, if the block count randomly does add up, we could see
: some corruption.
