Hugh Dickins e07c469e97 tmpfs: track free_ispace instead of free_inodes ...

In preparation for assigning some inode space to extended attributes,
keep track of free_ispace instead of number of free_inodes: as if one
tmpfs inode (and accompanying dentry) occupies very approximately 1KiB.

Unsigned long is large enough for free_ispace, on 64-bit and on 32-bit:
but take care to enforce the maximum.  And fix the nr_blocks maximum on
32-bit: S64_MAX would be too big for it there, so say LONG_MAX instead.

Delete the incorrect limited<->unlimited blocks/inodes comment above
shmem_reconfigure(): leave it to the error messages below to describe.
