This patch fixes lately introduced speed improvement of ramfs_truncate
function. Number of chunks were passed to ramfs_find_chunk function,
which returned NULL as result. Chunks are indexed from 0, hence we
need to pass (number_of_chunks - 1) to get pointer to the last chunk.

Hi,
Just few words to clarify where this bug come from.
We are fixing now patch [1], which was rebased on top of patch [2].
Simple file transfer using fastboot protocol worked fine in such
configuration. However it turned out that [2] had bug (`newchunks = 1`
instead of `oldchunks = 1`). After [2] was fixed it turned out that
[1] has also bug, which results in NULL pointer dereference during
file upload with fastboot protocol.
Patch tested on `next` branch.
