I had to ammend this commit to add this check:

 	/* define goal start in order to merge */
 	if (ar->pright && (ar->lright == (start + size)) &&
+	    ar->pright >= size &&
 	    ar->pright - size >= le32_to_cpu(es->s_first_data_block)) {

Without this check, it's possible for ar->pright - size to go negative
(well, underflow since it's an unsigned value).  This will later
trigger a BUG_ON, which was easily reproduced via:

   kvm-xfstests -c ext4/ext3conv generic/231
