I didn't find anything else where we could hit any overflow due to
fex->fe_logical + xxx. 
So, looks good to me except these two helper functions.
I think we can directly just typecast those in place. There are many
other places in ext4 code where careful arithmatic of either adding or
bit shifting has been done. These helpers specially fex_end() is
really confusing.
