Subject[patch 37/74] hugetlbfs: fix i_blocks accounting
2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sandeen.net>

commit e4c6f8bed01f9f9a5c607bd689bf67e7b8a36bd8 upstream.

As reported in Red Hat bz #509671, i_blocks for files on hugetlbfs get
accounting wrong when doing something like:

$ > foo
$ date > foo
date: write error: Invalid argument
$ /usr/bin/stat foo
File: `foo'
Size: 0 Blocks: 18446744073709547520 IO Block: 2097152 regular
...

This is because hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is unconditionally removing
blocks_per_huge_page(h) on each call rather than using the freed amount.
If there were 0 blocks, it goes negative, resulting in the above.

This is a regression from commit a5516438959d90b071ff0a484ce4f3f523dc3152
("hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size")

which did:

- inode->i_blocks -= BLOCKS_PER_HUGEPAGE * freed;
+ inode->i_blocks -= blocks_per_huge_page(h);

so just put back the freed multiplier, and it's all happy again.
