[ Upstream commit b07ffe6927 ]
We need to set ac_g_ex to notify the goal start used in
ext4_mb_find_by_goal. Set ac_g_ex instead of ac_f_ex in
ext4_mb_normalize_request.
Besides we should assure goal start is in range [first_data_block,
blocks_count) as ext4_mb_initialize_context does.
[ Added a check to make sure size is less than ar->pright; otherwise
we could end up passing an underflowed value of ar->pright - size to
ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(), which will trigger a BUG_ON later on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
