Hi Baokun,

I'm not sure if Christian has enough time to polish the whole
codebase (I'm happy if do so).  Basically, that is just a hint
to the issue, if you have more time, I guess you could also help
revive this patch together (also because you also have a real
EROFS test environment).

Let me also check this next week after OSSNA travelling.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
