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,
