Baokun Li ba191200a1 ext4: correct best extent lstart adjustment logic
[ Upstream commit 4fbf8bc733 ]

When yangerkun review commit 93cdf49f6e ("ext4: Fix best extent lstart
adjustment logic in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa()"), it was found that the best
extent did not completely cover the original request after adjusting the
best extent lstart in ext4_mb_new_inode_pa() as follows:

  original request: 2/10(8)
  normalized request: 0/64(64)
  best extent: 0/9(9)

When we check if best ex can be kept at start of goal, ac_o_ex.fe_logical
is 2 less than the adjusted best extent logical end 9, so we think the
adjustment is done. But obviously 0/9(9) doesn't cover 2/10(8), so we
should determine here if the original request logical end is less than or
equal to the adjusted best extent logical end.

In addition, add a comment stating when adjusted best_ex will not cover
the original request, and remove the duplicate assertion because adjusting
lstart makes no change to b_ex.fe_len.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
