This one I find somewhat questionable for multiple reasons.

 * the fourth parameter of add_chunk() is of size_t, not uint64_t;
   shouldn't the multiplication be done in type size_t instead?

 * these mutiplications were introduced in "midx: use chunk-format
   API in write_midx_internal()"; that step should use the
   arithmetic with cast (if necessary) from the start, no?

 * There is "ctx.entries_nr * MIDX_CHUNKID_OFFSET_WIDTH" passed to
   add_chunk(), in the post-context of the first hunk.  Shouldn't
   that be covered as well?  I didn't grep for all uses of
   add_chunk(), but I wouldn't be surprised if this patch missed
   some of the calls that need the same treatment.
