Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.6 038/129] xfs: fix incorrect test in xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_lastblock

From: "Darrick J. Wong" <darrick.wong@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 77ca1eed5a7d2bf0905562eb1a15aac76bc19fe4 ]

When I lifted the code in xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_lastblock out of a loop,
I forgot to convert all the accesses to len to be pointer dereferences.

Coverity-id: 1457918
Fixes: 5113f8ec3753ed ("xfs: clean up weird while loop in xfs_alloc_ag_vextent_near")
