4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit fa1195ccc0af2d121abe0fe266a1caee8c265eea ]
We need to increase output offset in each iteration, not decrease it as
we currently do.
I guess we were lucky to finish in most cases in first iteration, so the
bug never showed. However it shows a lot when working with big (~4GB)
size data.
