Subject: [PATCH v3] xfs: fix an undefined behaviour in _da3_path_shift

In xfs_da3_path_shift() "blk" can be assigned to state->path.blk[-1] if
state->path.active is 1 (which is a valid state) when it tries to add an
entry to a single dir leaf block and then to shift forward to see if
there's a sibling block that would be a better place to put the new
entry. This causes a UBSAN warning given negative array indices are
undefined behavior in C. In practice the warning is entirely harmless
given that "blk" is never dereferenced in this case, but it is still
better to fix up the warning and slightly improve the code.

 UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_da_btree.c:1989:14
 index -1 is out of range for type 'xfs_da_state_blk_t [5]'
