The bucket validator keeps the entry array bounded by the first\nbucket block while checking name/value offsets against the bucket block\nthey target.\n\nReject corrupted external xattr metadata before listxattr() or getxattr()\ncan walk out-of-range entry arrays or name/value offsets.\n\nValidation reproduced this kernel report:\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ocfs2_xattr_list_entries+0xd7/0x190\nRead of size 1 at addr ffff88810a654007 by task ocfs2_xattr_lis/630\nCall Trace:\n  dump_stack_lvl+0x66/0xa0\n  print_report+0xce/0x630\n  kasan_report+0xe0/0x110\n  ocfs2_xattr_list_entries+0xd7/0x190\n  ocfs2_listxattr+0x3f6/0x610\n  listxattr+0x90/0xe0\n  path_listxattrat+0xed/0x220\n  do_syscall_64+0x115/0x6a0\n  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f"
