Hi Matthew,

When creating this patch, I read and searched about the loff_t vs size_t.
By mistake, I implemented it in the wrong way.

Also, I did not test it and just compiled it. I apologise for doing so.

And for the other points you have put as feedback. I will take some time to understand
it. And would like to work on the changes you suggest.

Thanks & regards
Sumitra
