smb3_insert_range() does not check if the new file size
(i_size + len) is valid. This allows FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE to bypass
RLIMIT_FSIZE, exceed s_maxbytes, or produce a size outside the loff_t
range.
Use check_add_overflow() to calculate the new EOF. Validate it with
inode_newsize_ok() before modifying the file.
Reproducer, using a file on a CIFS mount:
bash -c '
FILE=/mnt/cifs/repro
trap "" SIGXFSZ
ulimit -f 3072 # RLIMIT_FSIZE = 3 MiB
# A regular write is stopped at 3 MiB.
dd if=/dev/zero of="$FILE" bs=1M count=4 status=none
stat -c "size after write: %s" "$FILE"
# Insert 2 MiB into a 2 MiB file.
truncate -s 2M "$FILE"
fallocate -i -o 0 -l 2M "$FILE"
stat -c "size after insert: %s" "$FILE"
'
Before this change, the regular write stops at the 3 MiB limit, but
insert range grows the file to 4 MiB:
dd: error writing '/mnt/cifs/repro': File too large
size after write: 3145728
size after insert: 4194304
After this change, insert range also fails at the limit and leaves the
2 MiB file unchanged:
dd: error writing '/mnt/cifs/repro': File too large
size after write: 3145728
fallocate: fallocate failed: File too large
size after insert: 2097152
Fixes: 7fe6fe95b936 ("cifs: add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE support")

The SMB client emulates FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE with SET_EOF, COPYCHUNK
and SET_ZERO_DATA.
SET_ZERO_DATA creates a hole only when the file is sparse. On a
non-sparse file, it clears the inserted range but leaves its blocks
allocated, causing the extent count check in xfstests generic/064 to
fail.
Try to mark the file sparse before starting the emulation. As with
existing file extension paths, ignore SET_SPARSE errors and continue
with the existing zero-filled behavior.
Tested with xfstests generic/064 against Samba and ksmbd.
Fixes: 7fe6fe95b936 ("cifs: add FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE support")
