ext4: make ext4_ext_get_blocks always return <= max_blocks

Browse source

ext4_ext_get_blocks() returns number of blocks allocated with buffer
heads unmapped for a read from prealloc space.  This is needed so that
delayed allocation doesn't do block reservation for prealloc space since
the blocks are already resevred on disk.  Fix ext4_ext_get_blocks to not
return greater than max_blocks, since some of the code paths cannot
handle such a return value.
