3.16.7-ckt9 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas at oracle.com>

commit dd9ef135e3542ffc621c4eb7f0091870ec7a1504 upstream.

Improper arithmetics when calculting the address of the extended ref could
lead to an out of bounds memory read and kernel panic.
