Pedro Demarchi Gomes 44a38eb4f7 ntfs: set dummy blocksize to read boot_block when mounting
[ Upstream commit d1693a7d5a38acf6424235a6070bcf5b186a360d ]

When mounting, sb->s_blocksize is used to read the boot_block without
being defined or validated. Set a dummy blocksize before attempting to
read the boot_block.

The issue can be triggered with the following syz reproducer:

  mkdirat(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000080)='./file1\x00', 0x0)
  r4 = openat$nullb(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000040), 0x121403, 0x0)
  ioctl$FS_IOC_SETFLAGS(r4, 0x40081271, &(0x7f0000000980)=0x4000)
  mount(&(0x7f0000000140)=@nullb, &(0x7f0000000040)='./cgroup\x00',
        &(0x7f0000000000)='ntfs3\x00', 0x2208004, 0x0)
  syz_clone(0x88200200, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)

Here, the ioctl sets the bdev block size to 16384. During mount,
get_tree_bdev_flags() calls sb_set_blocksize(sb, block_size(bdev)),
but since block_size(bdev) > PAGE_SIZE, sb_set_blocksize() leaves
sb->s_blocksize at zero.

Later, ntfs_init_from_boot() attempts to read the boot_block while
sb->s_blocksize is still zero, which triggers the bug.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
