Today, put_compat_statfs64() disallows nearly any field value over
2^32 if f_bsize is only 32 bits, but that makes no sense.
compat_statfs64 is there for the explicit purpose of providing 64-bit
fields for f_files, f_ffree, etc. And f_bsize is always only 32 bits.
As a result, 32-bit userspace gets -EOVERFLOW for i.e. large file
counts even with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 set.
In reality, only f_bsize and f_frsize can legitimately overflow
(fields like f_type and f_namelen should never be large), so test
only those fields.
This bug was discussed at length some time ago, and this is the proposal
Al suggested at https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/8/6/640. It seemed to get
dropped amid the discussion of other related changes, but this
part seems obviously correct on its own, so I've picked it up and
sent it, for expediency.

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.
