[syzbot reported]
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI

CPU: 0 PID: 5061 Comm: syz-executor404 Not tainted 6.8.0-syzkaller-08951-gfe46a7dd189e #0
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 03/27/2024
RIP: 0010:dtInsertEntry+0xd0c/0x1780 fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c:3713
...
[Analyze]
In dtInsertEntry(), when the pointer h has the same value as p, after writing
name in UniStrncpy_to_le(), p->header.flag will be cleared. This will cause the
previously true judgment "p->header.flag & BT-LEAF" to change to no after writing
the name operation, this leads to entering an incorrect branch and accessing the
uninitialized object ih when judging this condition for the second time.

[Fix]
After got the page, check freelist first, if freelist == 0 then exit dtInsert()
and return -EINVAL.
