The sb_blocklog is checked in the superblock verifier when we first read in the
superblock:

sbp->sb_blocksize < XFS_MIN_BLOCKSIZE ||
sbp->sb_blocksize > XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE ||
sbp->sb_blocklog < XFS_MIN_BLOCKSIZE_LOG ||
sbp->sb_blocklog > XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE_LOG ||
sbp->sb_blocksize != (1 << sbp->sb_blocklog) ||

#define XFS_MAX_BLOCKSIZE_LOG 16

However, we pass mp->m_sb.sb_dblocks or m_sb.sb_rblocks to this
function, and they are validated by the same verifier as invalid
if:

sbp->sb_dblocks > XFS_MAX_DBLOCKS(sbp)

#define XFS_MAX_DBLOCKS(s) ((xfs_rfsblock_t)(s)->sb_agcount *
(s)->sb_agblocks)

Which means as long as someone can corrupt some combination of
sb_dblocks, sb_agcount and sb_agblocks that allows sb_dblocks to be
greater than 2^48 on a 64kB fsb fs, then that the above code:

uint64_t bytes = nblocks << sbp->sb_blocklog;

will overflow.

I also suspect that we can feed a huge rtdev to this new code
and have it overflow without needing to corrupt the superblock in
any way....
