If prev_badblocks() returns '-1', it means no valid badblocks record
before the checking range. It doesn't make sense to check whether
the input checking range is overlapped with the non-existed invalid
front range.

This patch checkes whether 'prev >= 0' is true before calling
overlap_front(), to void such invalid operations.

README
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.

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.
