[49/90] ext4: Fix time encoding with extra epoch bits

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Dec 10 2009 - 23:41:24 EST


2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
(cherry picked from commit c1fccc0696bcaff6008c11865091f5ec4b0937ab)

"Looking at ext4.h, I think the setting of extra time fields forgets to
mask the epoch bits so the epoch part overwrites nsec part. The second
change is only for coherency (2 -> EXT4_EPOCH_BITS)."

Thanks to Damien Guibouret for pointing out this problem.
