Ojaswin Mujoo d387cee49c ext4: fix reserved gdt blocks handling in fsmap
commit 3ffbdd1f1165f1b2d6a94d1b1aabef57120deaf7 upstream.

In some cases like small FSes with no meta_bg and where the resize
doesn't need extra gdt blocks as it can fit in the current one,
s_reserved_gdt_blocks is set as 0, which causes fsmap to emit a 0
length entry, which is incorrect.

  $ mkfs.ext4 -b 65536 -O bigalloc /dev/sda 5G
  $ mount /dev/sda /mnt/scratch
  $ xfs_io -c "fsmap -d" /mnt/scartch

        0: 253:48 [0..127]: static fs metadata 128
        1: 253:48 [128..255]: special 102:1 128
        2: 253:48 [256..255]: special 102:2 0     <---- 0 len entry
        3: 253:48 [256..383]: special 102:3 128

Fix this by adding a check for this case.

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.
