3.13.11-ckt34 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum at oracle.com>

commit b0918d9f476a8434b055e362b83fa4fd1d462c3f upstream.

udf_next_aext() just follows extent pointers while extents are marked as
indirect. This can loop forever for corrupted filesystem. Limit number
the of indirect extents we are willing to follow in a row.

[JK: Updated changelog, limit, style]
