		new_bex_start = new_bex_end - EXT4_C2B(sbi, ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len);

I think it will be safer if we typecast all above new_bex_end
calculations. I understand that it might never happen here that
fe_logical + best found extent length will make it overflow.
Simply because we only enter here when ac_b_ex.fe_len <
ac_orig_goal_len. But I think if we change any logic tomorrow or
refactor any part of code, it will be much safer if we simply keep the
typecast in place so that we avoid any future tripping caused by
arithmatic overflow here.

Also I am not finding fex_end() or pa_end() helpers very intuitive way
of doing it. I feel typecasting in place is much simpler and reads better.
