w/o this patch sbi->s_bitmap_maxbytes was becoming a negative
value due to overflow of upper_limit (with has_huge_files as true)

Below is a quick test to trigger it on a 64KB pagesize system.

sudo mkfs.ext4 -b 65536 -O ^has_extents,^64bit /dev/loop2
sudo mount /dev/loop2 /mnt
sudo echo "hello" > /mnt/hello 	-> This will error out with
				"echo: write error: File too large"

OK, this works (although it's really tight ;). Won't it be somewhat safer
if we compared upper_limit and res before shifting both by blocksize_bits
to the left? Basically we need to shift only for comparison with
MAX_LFS_FILESIZE which is in bytes... But either way feel free to add:
