ext4_iomap_begin() has a bug where offset returned in the iomap
structure will be truncated to unsigned long size. On 64-bit
architectures this is fine but on 32-bit architectures obviously not.
Not many places actually use the offset stored in the iomap structure
but one of visible failures is in SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA implementation.
If we create a file like:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=file bs=1k seek=8m count=1
then
lseek64("file", 0x100000000ULL, SEEK_DATA)
wrongly returns 0x100000000 on unfixed kernel while it should return
0x200000000. Avoid the overflow by proper type cast.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
