Hi Salah,

These aren't the same check though. If we ignore the BEFS_SB(sb)->block_shift 
just to
comparing them, we can consider the checks to be the following.

In befs_fblock2brun():
if (fblock < data->max_direct_range)

In befs_find_brun_direct():
if (fblock > data->max_direct_range)

Notice how one checks if the block is past the range, and the other checks if 
it isn't
before it.

They also looked similar to me the first time I saw them and I had to 
double-check :)

Thanks,
Luis
