From: Sougata Santra <sougata@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: fs/hfsplus/extents.c: fix concurrent acess of alloc_blocks

Concurrent access to alloc_blocks in hfsplus_inode_info() is protected by
extents_lock mutex.  This patch fixes two instances where alloc_blocks
modification was not protected with this lock.  This fixes possible
allocation bitmap corruption in race conditions while extending and
truncating files.
