nilfs2: fix buffer corruption due to concurrent device reads
As a result of analysis of a syzbot report, it turned out that in three cases where nilfs2 allocates block device buffers directly via sb_getblk, concurrent reads to the device can corrupt the allocated buffers. Nilfs2 uses sb_getblk for segment summary blocks, that make up a log header, and the super root block, that is the trailer, and when moving and writing the second super block after fs resize. In any of these, since the uptodate flag is not set when storing metadata to be written in the allocated buffers, the stored metadata will be overwritten if a device read of the same block occurs concurrently before the write. This causes metadata corruption and misbehavior in the log write itself, causing warnings in nilfs_btree_assign() as reported. Fix these issues by setting an uptodate flag on the buffer head on the first or before modifying each buffer obtained with sb_getblk, and clearing the flag on failure. When setting the uptodate flag, the lock_buffer/unlock_buffer pair is used to perform necessary exclusive control, and the buffer is filled to ensure that uninitialized bytes are not mixed into the data read from others. As for buffers for segment summary blocks, they are filled incrementally, so if the uptodate flag was unset on their allocation, set the flag and zero fill the buffer once at that point. Also, regarding the superblock move routine, the starting point of the memset call to zerofill the block is incorrectly specified, which can cause a buffer overflow on file systems with block sizes greater than 4KiB. In addition, if the superblock is moved within a large block, it is necessary to assume the possibility that the data in the superblock will be destroyed by zero-filling before copying. So fix these potential issues as well.
