2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
commit 6d19c42b7cf81c39632b6d4dbc514e8449bcd346 upstream (as of v2.6.34-git13)
Currently using posix_fallocate one can bypass an RLIMIT_FSIZE limit
and create a file larger than the limit. Add a check for that.
