[PATCH] FS: nilfs2: clamps ns_r_segments_percentage to [1, 99]

From: Haogang Chen
Date: Mon Feb 20 2012 - 16:58:49 EST


ns_r_segments_percentage is read from the disk. Bogus or malicious
value could cause integer overflow and potential security holes.
This patch reports error when mounting such bogus volumes.
