commit 90ba983f6889e65a3b506b30dc606aa9d1d46cd2 upstream.

A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (&gt; 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow.  This was detected by PaX security patchset:

http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&amp;t=3289&amp;p=12551#p12551

This bug was introduced in commit 9f24e4208f7e, so it's been around
since 2.6.30.  :-(

Fix this by using an atomic64_t for struct orlav_stats's
free_clusters.

commit 810da240f221d64bf90020f25941b05b378186fe upstream.

We're using macro EXT4_B2C() to convert number of blocks to number of
clusters for bigalloc file systems.  However, we should be using
EXT4_NUM_B2C().

commit 860d21e2c585f7ee8a4ecc06f474fdc33c9474f4 upstream.

The only reason for sb_getblk() failing is if it can't allocate the
buffer_head.  So ENOMEM is more appropriate than EIO.  In addition,
make sure that the file system is marked as being inconsistent if
sb_getblk() fails.

commit 952fc18ef9ec707ebdc16c0786ec360295e5ff15 upstream.

Commit f975d6bcc7a introduced bug which caused ext4_statfs() to
miscalculate the number of file system overhead blocks.  This causes
the f_blocks field in the statfs structure to be larger than it should
be.  This would in turn cause the "df" output to show the number of
data blocks in the file system and the number of data blocks used to
be larger than they should be.

<title>ext4: Rename ext4_free_blks_{count,set}() to refer to clusters</title>

<content type='text'>
The field bg_free_blocks_count_{lo,high} in the block group
descriptor has been repurposed to hold the number of free clusters for
bigalloc functions.  So rename the functions so it makes it easier to
read and audit the block allocation and block freeing code.

Note: at this point in bigalloc development we doesn't support
online resize, so this also makes it really obvious all of the places
we need to fix up to add support for online resize.

call kfree() as well to avoid a memory leak.
