I have reviewed your patch and found other place which might
cause overflow as below. If group_first_block is the first block of
the last group, overflow will occur. This has already been fixed
in my patch.
o ext3_try_to_allocate_with_rsv() in fs/ext3/balloc.c

Yes, this isn't being addressed in the current 2.6.18-rc4 kernel. I
think this is better than casting to unsigned long long:
- if ((my_rsv->rsv_start >= group_first_block + EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb))
+ if ((my_rsv->rsv_start > group_first_block - 1 +
EXT3_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb))
Thanks,
