hfsplus: fix possible deadlock when handling corrupted extents
A corrupted extent for the extent file itself may try to get an impossible extent, causing a deadlock if I see it correctly. Check the inode number after the first_blocks checks and fail if it's the extent file, as according to the spec the extent file should have no extent for itself.
