From: Phillip Lougher <phillip@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: squashfs: fix divide error in calculate_skip()

Sysbot has reported a "divide error" which has been identified as being
caused by a corrupted file_size value within the file inode.  This value
has been corrupted to a much larger value than expected.

Calculate_skip() is passed i_size_read(inode) >> msblk->block_log.  Due to
the file_size value corruption this overflows the int argument/variable in
that function, leading to the divide error.

This patch changes the function to use u64.  This will accommodate any
unexpectedly large values due to corruption.

The value returned from calculate_skip() is clamped to be never more than
SQUASHFS_CACHED_BLKS - 1, or 7.  So file_size corruption does not lead to
an unexpectedly large return result here.
