And there is a missing call site in btrfs_decompress() which uses 
ASSERT() to check against PAGE_SIZE, not folio size and can crash 
btrfs/056 during tests.

(Yep, I'm already testing bs > ps with fstests now, and it can reach 
btrfs/056 except a weird crash in btrfs/004 that I'm still debugging)

Will update the series when no more compression bugs exposed by default 
fstests runs.

Thanks,
Qu
