Subject: - ext4-fix-freespace-accounting-with-mballoc-on-32bit-machines.patch removed from -mm tree


The patch titled
ext4: fix freespace accounting with mballoc on 32bit machines
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ext4-fix-freespace-accounting-with-mballoc-on-32bit-machines.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: ext4: fix freespace accounting with mballoc on 32bit machines
From: Eric Sandeen <[email protected]>

On a 32bit machine, passing the negative unsigned long fe_len
into percpu_counter_add (which expects s64) messes up the counters:

[root@bear-05 linux-2.6.23-rc7]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb7 97G -149P 149P - /mnt/test

Patch below fixes this.
