From: Jie Liu <jeff.liu@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit bb86d21cba22a045b09d11b71decf5ca7c3d5def upstream.

At xfs_iext_add(), if extent(s) are being appended to the last page in
the indirection array and the new extent(s) don't fit in the page, the
number of extents(erp->er_extcount) in a new allocated entry should be
the minimum value between count and XFS_LINEAR_EXTS, instead of count.

For now, there is no existing test case can demonstrates a problem with
the er_extcount being set incorrectly here, but it obviously like a bug.
