Subject: [PATCH] Fix hugetlbfs_statfs() reporting of block limits

Andrew, please apply.

Currently, if a hugetlbfs is mounted without limits (the default),
statfs() will return -1 for max/free/used blocks. This does not
appear to be in line with normal convention: simple_statfs() and
shmem_statfs() both return 0 in similar cases. Worse, it confuses the
translation logic in put_compat_statfs(), causing it to return
-EOVERFLOW on such a mount.

This patch alters hugetlbfs_statfs() to return 0 for max/free/used
blocks on a mount without limits. Note that we need the test in the
patch below, rather than just using 0 in the sbinfo structure, because
the -1 marked in the free blocks field is used internally to tell the
difference between a full filesystem and one with no limit.
