[PATCH 3.16 125/212] ext4: fix fencepost in s_first_meta_bg validation

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Jun 01 2017 - 12:09:21 EST


3.16.44-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit 2ba3e6e8afc9b6188b471f27cf2b5e3cf34e7af2 upstream.

It is OK for s_first_meta_bg to be equal to the number of block group
descriptor blocks. (It rarely happens, but it shouldn't cause any
problems.)
