Subject: fs: guard_bio_eod() needs to consider partitions

From: Greg Edwards <[email protected]>

commit 67f2519fe2903c4041c0e94394d14d372fe51399 upstream.

guard_bio_eod() needs to look at the partition capacity, not just the capacity of the whole device, when determining if truncation is necessary.

[   60.268688] attempt to access beyond end of device
[   60.268690] unknown-block(9,1): rw=0, want=67103509, limit=67103506
[   60.268693] buffer_io_error: 2 callbacks suppressed
[   60.268696] Buffer I/O error on dev md1p7, logical block 4524305, async page read
