We better warn the fibmap user and not return a truncated and therefore an incorrect block map address if the bmap() returned block address is greater than INT_MAX (since user supplied integer pointer). It's better to pr_warn() all user of ioctl_fibmap() and return a proper error code rather than silently letting a FS corruption happen if the user tries to fiddle around with the returned block map address. We fix this by returning an error code of -ERANGE and returning 0 as the block mapping address in case if it is > INT_MAX. Now iomap_bmap() could be called from either of these two paths. Either when a user is calling an ioctl_fibmap() interface to get the block mapping address or by some filesystem via use of bmap() internal kernel API. bmap() kernel API is well equipped with handling of u64 addresses. WARN condition in iomap_bmap_actor() was mainly added to warn all the fibmap users. But now that we have directly added this warning for all fibmap users and also made sure to return 0 as block map address in case if addr > INT_MAX. So we can now remove this logic from iomap_bmap_actor().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
