Merge tag 'xfs-4.17-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
 "I've got one more bug fix for xfs for 4.17-rc4, which caps the amount
  of data we try to handle in one dedupe request so that userspace can't
  livelock the kernel.

  This series has been run through a full xfstests run during the week
  and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with
  no ajor failures reported.

  Summary:

  - Cap the maximum length of a deduplication request at MAX_RW_COUNT/2
    to avoid kernel livelock due to excessively large IO requests"
