ext4: avoid potential data overflow in next_linear_group
ngroups is ext4_group_t (unsigned int) while next_linear_group treat it in int. If ngroups is bigger than max number described by int, it will be treat as a negative number. Then "return group + 1 >= ngroups ? 0 : group + 1;" may keep returning 0. Switch int to ext4_group_t in next_linear_group to fix the overflow.
