[PATCH v2 RESEND] xfs: fix dead loop at xfs_vm_writepage() on 32bit machine

[Jeff Liu <jeff.liu@oracle.com>]

From: Jie Liu <jeff.liu@oracle.com>

Write a file with an offset greater than 16TB on 32-bit system and
then trigger page write-back via sync(1) as below will cause the
task hang in a little while:
# block_size=4096
# offset=$(((2**32 - 1) * $block_size))
# xfs_io -f -c "pwrite $offset $block_size" /storage/test_file
# sync

INFO: task sync:2590 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
sync            D c1064a28     0  2590   2097 0x00000000

The reason is that the end_index is unsigned long with maximum value
'2^32-1=4294967295' on 32-bit platform, and the given offset cause it
wrapped to 0, so that the following codes will repeat again and again
until the task schedule time out:

end_index = offset >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;
last_index = (offset - 1) >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;
if (page->index >= end_index) {
	unsigned offset_into_page = offset & (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - 1);
        /*
         * Just skip the page if it is fully outside i_size, e.g. due
         * to a truncate operation that is in progress.
         */
        if (page->index >= end_index + 1 || offset_into_page == 0) {
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
		unlock_page(page);
		return 0;
	}

To check a page is fully outsids i_size or not, we can change the
logic to:
	if (page->index > end_index ||
	    (page->index == end_index && offset_into_page == 0))

Secondly, there still has another similar issue when calculating the
end offset for mapping the filesystem blocks to the file blocks for
delalloc.  With the same tests to above, run unmount(8) will cause
kernel panic if CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is enabled:

XFS: Assertion failed: XFS_FORCED_SHUTDOWN(ip->i_mount) || \
	ip->i_delayed_blks == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_super.c, line: 964

That because the end_offset is evaluated to 0 same to above, hence the
mapping and covertion for dealloc file blocks to file system blocks did
not happened.

This patch just fixed both issues.

v2: don't reset the s_max_bytes to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, instead, revise the page offset
    check up strategy to avoid the potential overflow.
