commit bedc5d34632c21b5adb8ca7143d4c1f794507e4c upstream. Let's say we want to allocate 2 blocks starting from 4294966386, after predicting the file size, start is aligned to 4294965248, len is changed to 2048, then end = start + size = 0x100000000. Since end is of type ext4_lblk_t, i.e. uint, end is truncated to 0. This causes (pa->pa_lstart >= end) to always hold when checking if the current extent to be allocated crosses already preallocated blocks, so the resulting ac_g_ex may cross already preallocated blocks. Hence we convert the end type to loff_t and use pa_logical_end() to avoid overflow.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
