[PATCH v2] erofs: fix unsafe pagevec reuse of hooked pclusters

From: Gao Xiang
Date: Wed Nov 03 2021 - 14:20:31 EST


There are pclusters in runtime marked with Z_EROFS_PCLUSTER_TAIL
before actual I/O submission. Thus, the decompression chain can be
extended if the following pcluster chain hooks such tail pcluster.

As the related comment mentioned, if some page is made of a hooked
pcluster and another followed pcluster, it can be reused for in-place
I/O (since I/O should be submitted anyway):
_______________________________________________________________
| tail (partial) page | head (partial) page |
|_____PRIMARY_HOOKED___|____________PRIMARY_FOLLOWED____________|

However, it's by no means safe to reuse as pagevec since if such
PRIMARY_HOOKED pclusters finally move into bypass chain without I/O
submission. It's somewhat hard to reproduce with LZ4 and I just found
it (general protection fault) by ro_fsstressing a LZMA image for long
time.

I'm going to actively clean up related code together with multi-page
folio adaption in the next few months. Let's address it directly for
easier backporting for now.
