ntfs: validate usa_ofs before preserving the update sequence number
When ntfs_mft_record_alloc() reuses a free mft record it reads the old
update sequence number straight from the on-disk record:
usn = *(__le16 *)((u8 *)m + le16_to_cpu(m->usa_ofs));
Here m points into the raw $MFT page-cache folio, which still holds
unvalidated, MST-protected bytes: the folio is read by a plain
iomap_read_folio() and neither post_read_mst_fixup() nor
ntfs_mft_record_check() has run on it (both work on private copies).
m->usa_ofs is therefore an untrusted u16, and a corrupted record can put
it past the end of the record so the two-byte read lands outside the
folio. Reading such a record while creating a file gives, under KASAN:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ntfs_mft_record_alloc+...
Read of size 2 at addr ...
ntfs_mft_record_alloc -> __ntfs_create -> ntfs_create -> path_openat
Only preserve the old update sequence number when usa_ofs is even and in
range, mirroring the check ntfs_mft_record_check() already applies;
otherwise leave usn zero, which the existing restore below skips.
