erofs: zero out when listxattr is called with no xattr
As David reported [1], ENODATA returns when attempting
to modify files by using EROFS as an overlayfs lower layer.
The root cause is that listxattr could return unexpected
-ENODATA by mistake for inodes without xattr. That breaks
listxattr return value convention and it can cause copy
up failure when used with overlayfs.
Resolve by zeroing out if no xattr is found for listxattr.

VLE was an old informal name of fixed-sized output
compression which came from published ATC'19 paper [1].
Drop those old annotations since erofs can handle
all encoded clusters in block-aligned basis, which
is wider than fixed-sized output compression after
larger clustersize feature is fully implemented.
Unaligned encoding won't be considered in EROFS
since it's not friendly to inplace I/O and perhaps
decompression inplace.
a) Fixed-sized output compression with 16KB pcluster:
___________________________________
|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|
|___ 0___|___ 1___|___ 2___|___ 3___| physical blocks
b) Block-aligned fixed-sized input compression with
16KB pcluster:
___________________________________
|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxx00000|
|___ 0___|___ 1___|___ 2___|___ 3___| physical blocks
c) Block-unaligned fixed-sized input compression with
16KB compression unit:
____________________________________________
|..xxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|x.......|

Previously, both z_erofs_unzip_io and z_erofs_unzip_io_sb
record decompress queues for backend to use.
The only difference is that z_erofs_unzip_io is used for
on-stack sync decompression so that it doesn't have a super
block field (since the caller can pass it in its context),
but it increases complexity with only a pointer saving.
Rename z_erofs_unzip_io to z_erofs_decompressqueue with
a fixed super_block member and kill the other entirely,
and it can fallback to sync decompression if memory
allocation failure.

After doing more drop_caches stress test on
our products, I found the mistake introduced by
a very recent cleanup [1].
The current rule is that "erofs_get_meta_page"
should be returned with page locked (although
it's mostly unnecessary for read-only fs after
pages are PG_uptodate), but a fix should be
done for this.

As Joe Perches suggested [1],
err = bio_add_page(bio, page, PAGE_SIZE, 0);
- if (unlikely(err != PAGE_SIZE)) {
+ if (err != PAGE_SIZE) {
err = -EFAULT;
goto err_out;
}
The initial assignment to err is odd as it's not
actually an error value -E<FOO> but a int size
from a unsigned int len.
Here the return is either 0 or PAGE_SIZE.
This would be more legible to me as:
if (bio_add_page(bio, page, PAGE_SIZE, 0) != PAGE_SIZE) {
err = -EFAULT;
goto err_out;

EROFS filesystem has been merged into linux-staging for a year.
EROFS is designed to be a better solution of saving extra storage
space with guaranteed end-to-end performance for read-only files
with the help of reduced metadata, fixed-sized output compression
and decompression inplace technologies.
In the past year, EROFS was greatly improved by many people as
a staging driver, self-tested, betaed by a large number of our
internal users, successfully applied to almost all in-service
HUAWEI smartphones as the part of EMUI 9.1 and proven to be stable
enough to be moved out of staging.
EROFS is a self-contained filesystem driver. Although there are
still some TODOs to be more generic, we have a dedicated team
actively keeping on working on EROFS in order to make it better
with the evolution of Linux kernel as the other in-kernel filesystems.
As Pavel suggested, it's better to do as one commit since git
can do moves and all histories will be saved in this way.
Let's promote it from staging and enhance it more actively as
a "real" part of kernel for more wider scenarios!
