Subject: [PATCH 4.9 089/218] ext2: correct max file size computing

From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 50b3a818991074177a56c87124c7a7bdf5fa4f67 ]

We need to calculate the max file size accurately if the total blocks
that can address by block tree exceed the upper_limit. But this check is
not correct now, it only compute the total data blocks but missing
metadata blocks are needed. So in the case of "data blocks < upper_limit
&& total blocks > upper_limit", we will get wrong result. Fortunately,
this case could not happen in reality, but it's confused and better to
correct the computing.
