Darrick J. Wong 1e4a0723eb xfs: fix s_maxbytes computation on 32-bit kernels
commit 932befe39ddea29cf47f4f1dc080d3dba668f0ca upstream.

I observed a hang in generic/308 while running fstests on a i686 kernel.
The hang occurred when trying to purge the pagecache on a large sparse
file that had a page created past MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, which caused an
integer overflow in the pagecache xarray and resulted in an infinite
loop.

I then noticed that Linus changed the definition of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE in
commit 0cc3b0ec23ce ("Clarify (and fix) MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macros") so
that it is now one page short of the maximum page index on 32-bit
kernels.  Because the XFS function to compute max offset open-codes the
2005-era MAX_LFS_FILESIZE computation and neither the vfs nor mm perform
any sanity checking of s_maxbytes, the code in generic/308 can create a
page above the pagecache's limit and kaboom.

Fix all this by setting s_maxbytes to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE directly and
aborting the mount with a warning if our assumptions ever break.  I have
no answer for why this seems to have been broken for years and nobody
noticed.
