ext4: avoid potential data overflow in next_linear_group 

[ Upstream commit 60c672b7f2 ]

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.
