Randy Dunlap 3bef198f1b JFS: more checks for invalid superblock
syzbot is feeding invalid superblock data to JFS for mount testing.
JFS does not check several of the fields -- just assumes that they
are good since the JFS_MAGIC and version fields are good.

In this case (syzbot reproducer), we have s_l2bsize == 0xda0c,
pad == 0xf045, and s_state == 0x50, all of which are invalid IMO.
Having s_l2bsize == 0xda0c causes this UBSAN warning:
  UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in fs/jfs/jfs_mount.c:373:25
  shift exponent -9716 is negative

s_l2bsize can be tested for correctness. pad can be tested for non-0
and punted. s_state can be tested for its valid values and punted.

Do those 3 tests and if any of them fails, report the superblock as
invalid/corrupt and let fsck handle it.

With this patch, chkSuper() says this when JFS_DEBUG is enabled:
  jfs_mount: Mount Failure: superblock is corrupt!
  Mount JFS Failure: -22
  jfs_mount failed w/return code = -22

The obvious problem with this method is that next week there could
be another syzbot test that uses different fields for invalid values,
this making this like a game of whack-a-mole.

README

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.
