UPSTREAM: ext4: add strict range checks while freeing blocks
commit a00b482b upstream. Currently ext4_mb_clear_bb() & ext4_group_add_blocks() only checks whether the given block ranges (which is to be freed) belongs to any FS metadata blocks or not, of the block's respective block group. But to detect any FS error early, it is better to add more strict checkings in those functions which checks whether the given blocks belongs to any critical FS metadata or not within system-zone.
