Darrick J. Wong bd721ec7de xfs: don't set bt_nr_sectors to a negative number
xfs_daddr_t is a signed type, which means that xfs_buf_map_verify is
using a signed comparison.  This causes problems if bt_nr_sectors is
never overridden (e.g. in the case of an xfbtree for rmap btree repairs)
because even daddr 0 can't pass the verifier test in that case.

Define an explicit max constant and set the initial bt_nr_sectors to a
positive value.
