Fixes a bug wherein a use after free could potentially be used to run
malicious code if a user can be tricked into running e2fsck on a
maliciously crafted file system.

+Subject: e2fsck: fix use after free in calculate_tree()
+
+The problem is alloc_blocks() will call get_next_block() which might
+reallocate outdir->buf, and memory address could be changed after
+this.  To fix this, pointers that point into outdir->buf, such as
+int_limit and root need to be recaulated based on the new starting
+address of outdir->buf.
+
+[ Changed to correctly recalculate int_limit, and to optimize how we
+  reallocate outdir->buf.  -TYT ]
