2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg(a)gmail.com>

commit 2ebc3464781ad24474abcbd2274e6254689853b5 upstream.

1. The BTRFS_IOC_CLONE and BTRFS_IOC_CLONE_RANGE ioctls should check
whether the donor file is append-only before writing to it.

2. The BTRFS_IOC_CLONE_RANGE ioctl appears to have an integer
overflow that allows a user to specify an out-of-bounds range to copy
from the source file (if off + len wraps around). I haven't been able
to successfully exploit this, but I'd imagine that a clever attacker
could use this to read things he shouldn't. Even if it's not
exploitable, it couldn't hurt to be safe.
