In ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail(), we want the start order to be
1 less than goal length and the min_order to be, at max, 1 more than the
original length. This commit fixes an off by one issue that arose due to
the fact that 1 << fls(n) > (n).
After all the processing:
order = 1 order below goal len
min_order = maximum of the three:-
- order - trim_order
- 1 order below B2C(s_stripe)
- 1 order above original len

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
