commit 31a074a0c62dc0d2bfb9b543142db4fe27f9e5eb upstream. For now in ext4_mb_new_blocks_simple, if we found a block which should be excluded then will switch to next group, this may probably cause 'group' run out of range. Change to check next block in the same group when get a block should be excluded. Also change the search range to EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP and add error checking.

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.
