commit 506220d2ba upstream.
Sysbot has reported a warning where a kmalloc() attempt exceeds the
maximum limit. This has been identified as corruption of the xattr_ids
count when reading the xattr id lookup table.
This patch adds a number of additional sanity checks to detect this
corruption and others.
1. It checks for a corrupted xattr index read from the inode. This could
be because the metadata block is uncompressed, or because the
"compression" bit has been corrupted (turning a compressed block
into an uncompressed block). This would cause an out of bounds read.
2. It checks against corruption of the xattr_ids count. This can either
lead to the above kmalloc failure, or a smaller than expected
table to be read.
3. It checks the contents of the index table for corruption.

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.
