This patch fixes several issues where sector offsets can overflow due to
being limited to 16-bits. There are many cases which can cause an
overflow, including large FAT32 partitions and partitions that start at
a sufficiently large offset on the storage device.
Numerous issues were observed and fixed when a 64GB FAT32 filesystem was
accessed due to truncation.
