Zorro Lang reports that generic/485 blows an assert on a filesystem with 512 byte blocks. The test tries to fallocate a post-eof extent at the maximum file size and calls insert range to shift the extents right by two blocks. On a 512b block filesystem this causes startoff to overflow the 54-bit startoff field, leading to the assert. Therefore, always check the rightmost extent to see if it would overflow prior to invoking the insert range machinery.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
