Squashfs: handle corruption of directory structure
Handle the rare case where a directory metadata block is uncompressed and corrupted, leading to a kernel oops in directory scanning (memcpy). Normally corruption is detected at the decompression stage and dealt with then, however, this will not happen if: - metadata isn't compressed (users can optionally request no metadata compression), or - the compressed metadata block was larger than the original, in which case the uncompressed version was used, or - the data was corrupt after decompression This patch fixes this by adding some sanity checks against known maximum values.
