From: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@xxxxxxxxxx>
The compiler, at least for ix86 and m68k, validly warns that the comparison:
next <= (loff_t)-1
is always true (and it's always true also for x86-64 and probably all other
arches - as long as pgoff_t isn't wider than loff_t). The intention appears
to be to avoid wrapping of "next", so rather than eliminating the pointless
comparison, fix the loop to indeed get exited when "next" would otherwise
wrap.
On m68k the following warning is observed:
fs/fscache/page.c: In function '__fscache_uncache_all_inode_pages':
fs/fscache/page.c:979: warning: comparison is always false due to
limited range of data type
