Found the problem. I was using a 4GB SD card with just a single FAT32
partition. The pentry.size is reported as 7744449 which fails the
check_offset_value() call.
I think this is the same issue Sanjeev reported in February.

Below patch seems to fix the issue for now. But I'm not sure what's the
correct way to fix this.
