We recently had a customer issue with a corrupted filesystem. When
trying to mount this image btrfs panicked with a division by zero in
calc_stripe_length().
The corrupt chunk had a 'num_stripes' value of 1. calc_stripe_length()
takes this value and divides it by the number of copies the RAID profile
is expected to have to calculate the amount of data stripes. As a DUP
profile is expected to have 2 copies this division resulted in 1/2 = 0.
Later then the 'data_stripes' variable is used as a divisor in the
stripe length calculation which results in a division by 0 and thus a
kernel panic.
When encountering a filesystem with a DUP block group and a
'num_stripes' value unequal to 2, refuse mounting as the image is
corrupted and will lead to unexpected behaviour.
Code inspection showed a RAID1 block group has the same issues.

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.
