From: Jan Kara <[email protected]>
commit d7fd24257aa60316bf81093f7f909dc9475ae974 upstream.
There is an off-by-one error in loop termination conditions in xfs_find_get_desired_pgoff() since 'end' may index a page beyond end of desired range if 'endoff' is page aligned. It doesn't have any visible effects but still it is good to fix it.
