CVE-2025-21736

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nilfs2: fix possible int overflows in nilfs_fiemap()

Since nilfs_bmap_lookup_contig() in nilfs_fiemap() calculates its result
by being prepared to go through potentially maxblocks == INT_MAX blocks,
the value in n may experience an overflow caused by left shift of blkbits.

While it is extremely unlikely to occur, play it safe and cast right hand
expression to wider type to mitigate the issue.

CWE-190 Integer Overflow or Wraparound

The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
