[PATCH] hfsplus: limit sb_maxbytes to partition size
From: Hyunchul Lee
Date: Tue Mar 03 2026 - 03:34:36 EST
s_maxbytes currently is set to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE,
which allows writes beyond the partition size. As a result,
large-offset writes on small partitions can fail late
with ENOSPC.
Set s_maxbytes to the partition size.
With this change, the large-offset writes are rejected
early by `generic_write_check_limit()` with EFBIG.
This patch also fixes generic/268.
