James Harvey reported pretty strange kernel misbehavior where after
reading certain btrfs compressed data, kernel crash with unrelated
calltrace.
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199707 and
 https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg77971.html)

Thanks for his comprehensive debug help, we located the problem to:

1) Bad lzo decompression verification check
   The direct cause.
   The lzo decompression code involves memory copy for compressed data
   who crosses page boundary.
   And if corrupted segment header contains invalid length, btrfs will
   do memory copy and then corrupt kernel memory.

   Fix it by add header length check for each segment, and just in case,
   also add uncompressed data length check. (Patch 3)

2) Compressed extent created for NODATASUM inode
   The root cause.
   Will be addressed in another patchset.

Other patches are mostly cosmetic, like adding extra include for
compression.h, to avoid later compiling error. (Patch 1)
Or adding comment of how btrfs organise its compressed data (Patch 2)
And adding extra check for inlined compressed data even it's not really
possible to happen (Patch 4)

Qu Wenruo (4):
  btrfs: compression: Add linux/sizes.h for compression.h
  btrfs: lzo: Add comment about the how btrfs records its lzo compressed
    data
  btrfs: lzo: Add header length check to avoid slab out of bounds access
  btrfs: lzo: Hardern inline lzo compressed extent decompression
