Subject: nfs: fix v4.2 SEEK on files over 2 gigs

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 306a5549355966e480e0dcacdc6b9321d153e0c0 upstream.

We're incorrectly assigning a loff_t return to an int.  If SEEK_HOLE or
SEEK_DATA returns an offset over 2^31 then the application will see a
weird lseek() result (usually -EIO).
