------- Additional Comments From sandeen@xxxxxxx  2006-04-26 21:42 CST -------
this looks like a devicemapper bug, in dm_blk_ioctl() they're assigning a full
unsigned 32 bits of device size to a signed 32 bit size, and start running
into trouble with sign extension when they cast it up.

Changing "long size;" to a sector_t (defined as unsigned long in the dm patch)
might fix this up, or whatever it takes to get the sizes & signs right in that
function.

If you can convince yourself that this really still is an xfs bug
feel free to reopen :)
