ext4: trim allocation requests to group size
If filesystem groups are artifically small (using parameter -g to mkfs.ext4), ext4_mb_normalize_request() can result in a request that is larger than a block group. Trim the request size to not confuse allocation code. Reported-by: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
