commit 0dcd3c94e02438f4a571690e26f4ee997524102a upstream.
Each ondisk inode should be aligned with inode slot boundary
(32-byte alignment) because of nid calculation formula, so all
compact inodes (32 byte) cannot across page boundary. However,
extended inode is now 64-byte form, which can across page boundary
in principle if the location is specified on purpose, although
it's hard to be generated by mkfs due to the allocation policy
and rarely used by Android use case now mainly for > 4GiB files.
For now, only two fields `i_ctime_nsec` and `i_nlink' couldn't
be read from disk properly and cause out-of-bound memory read
with random value.
Let's fix now.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
