BTW, here the fact that you are adding the mask is misleading - it's true,
but we are not using it as a mask - it's straight arithmetics.

One can do an equivalent code where it would've been used as a mask, but that
would be harder to read -
	(((i_size_read(inode) - 1) | i_blockmask(inode)) + 1) >> inode->i_blkbits
and I doubt anyone wants that kind of puzzles to stumble upon.
