Hi Edward,

iter->pos) in iomap_iter_done() is triggered.

1. When Z_EROFS_ADVISE_EXTENTS exists, z_erofs_fill_inode_lazy() is exited
after z_extents is set, which skips the check of big pcluster;
2. When the condition "lstart < lend" is met in z_erofs_map_blocks_ext(),
m_la is updated, and m_la is used to update iomap->offset in
z_erofs_iomap_begin_report();

Z_EROFS_ADVISE_BIG_PCLUSTER_1 and Z_EROFS_ADVISE_BIG_PCLUSTER_2 are
valid only for !Z_EROFS_ADVISE_EXTENTS, so I don't think this change
is a proper solution.

From the commit message above, I don't get the root cause either.
Anyway, I will seek time to look into this issue later.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
