Syzkiller reports a "KMSAN: uninit-value in pick_link" bug.

This is caused by an uninitialised page, which is ultimately caused
by a corrupted symbolic link size read from disk.

The reason why the corrupted symlink size causes an uninitialised
page is due to the following sequence of events:

1. squashfs_read_inode() is called to read the symbolic
   link from disk.  This assigns the corrupted value
   3875536935 to inode-&gt;i_size.

2. Later squashfs_symlink_read_folio() is called, which assigns
   this corrupted value to the length variable, which being a
   signed int, overflows producing a negative number.

3. The following loop that fills in the page contents checks that
   the copied bytes is less than length, which being negative means
   the loop is skipped, producing an uninitialised page.

This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the symbolic
link size is not larger than expected.

<title>Squashfs: check the inode number is not the invalid value of zero</title>

Syskiller has produced an out of bounds access in fill_meta_index().

That out of bounds access is ultimately caused because the inode
has an inode number with the invalid value of zero, which was not checked.

The reason this causes the out of bounds access is due to following
sequence of events:

1. Fill_meta_index() is called to allocate (via empty_meta_index())
   and fill a metadata index.  It however suffers a data read error
   and aborts, invalidating the newly returned empty metadata index.
   It does this by setting the inode number of the index to zero,
   which means unused (zero is not a valid inode number).

2. When fill_meta_index() is subsequently called again on another
   read operation, locate_meta_index() returns the previous index
   because it matches the inode number of 0.  Because this index
   has been returned it is expected to have been filled, and because
   it hasn't been, an out of bounds access is performed.

This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the inode number
is not zero when the inode is created and returns -EINVAL if it is.

used. Switch to using accessor functions instead of raw accesses of
inode-&gt;i_ctime.

<title>Squashfs: fix i_blocks calculation with extended regular files</title>

<id>3d4a1c80c4eb97187b3a61b3bfa8c804327f7a45</id>
<content type='text'>
The le64_to_cpu() forces the calculation to be unsigned, with
the effect that it can underflow leading to an incorrect large
value.

This bug only triggers in rare(ish) circumstances, an empty file
encoded as an extended regular file or a completely sparse file.
Normally empty files are encoded as a regular file rather than as
an extended regular file (and the regular file i_blocks calculation
doesn't have this bug).  To save space regular file inodes are
optimised to encode the most commonly occurring files.  Less
common regular files are encoded using extended regular file inodes
which contain extra information.

Empty files with nlinks greater than 1, and or empty files
with extended attributes are encoded using extended regular file
inodes and they will hit this bug.
