Mount fails if file system image has empty files because of sanity check
while reading superblock. For empty files disk offset to end of file
(i_eoffset) is cpu_to_le32(-1). Sanity check comparison, which compares
disk offset with file system size isn't valid for this value and hence
is ignored with this patch.
Steps to reproduce:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=bfs-image count=204800
$ mkfs.bfs bfs-image
$ mkdir bfs-mount-point
$ sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
$ cd bfs-mount-point/
$ sudo touch a
$ cd ..
$ sudo umount bfs-mount-point/
$ sudo mount -t bfs -o loop bfs-image bfs-mount-point/
mount: /dev/loop0: can't read superblock
$ dmesg
[25526.689580] BFS-fs: bfs_fill_super(): Inode 0x00000003 corrupted

"If you had created the filesystem with the proper mkfs under SCO
UnixWare 7 you (probably) wouldn't encounter this issue. But since
commercial Unix-es are now part of history and the only proper way is
the Linux mkfs.bfs utility, your patch is fine"
