Wengang Wang 9e1ad0875e xfs: make sure sb_fdblocks is non-negative
[ Upstream commit 58f880711f2ba53fd5e959875aff5b3bf6d5c32e ]

A user with a completely full filesystem experienced an unexpected
shutdown when the filesystem tried to write the superblock during
runtime.
kernel shows the following dmesg:

When xfs_log_sb writes super block to disk, b_fdblocks is fetched from
m_fdblocks without any lock. As m_fdblocks can experience a positive ->
negative -> positive changing when the FS reaches fullness (see
xfs_mod_fdblocks). So there is a chance that sb_fdblocks is negative, and
because sb_fdblocks is type of unsigned long long, it reads super big.
And sb_fdblocks being bigger than sb_dblocks is a problem during log
recovery, xfs_validate_sb_write() complains.

Fix:
As sb_fdblocks will be re-calculated during mount when lazysbcount is
enabled, We just need to make xfs_validate_sb_write() happy -- make sure
sb_fdblocks is not nenative. This patch also takes care of other percpu
counters in xfs_log_sb.

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.
