[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v3] f2fs: validate ACL entry sizes in f2fs_acl_from_disk()

f2fs_acl_count() only validates the aggregate ACL xattr length. A
malformed ACL can still place ACL_USER or ACL_GROUP in a slot that only
contains struct f2fs_acl_entry_short bytes, and f2fs_acl_from_disk()
then reads entry->e_id before verifying that a full entry fits.

Require a short entry before reading e_tag and e_perm, and require a
full entry before reading e_id for ACL_USER and ACL_GROUP. Return
-EFSCORRUPTED from these new truncated-entry checks, while keeping the
pre-existing -EINVAL paths unchanged.

Validation reproduced this kernel report:
KASAN slab-out-of-bounds in __f2fs_get_acl+0x6fb/0x7e0
RIP: 0033:0x7f4b835ea7aa
The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888114589960 which belongs
to the cache kmalloc-8 of size 8

Changes in v3:
- Keep the pre-existing -EINVAL error paths unchanged.
- Return -EFSCORRUPTED only from the newly added truncated-entry checks.

Changes in v2:
- Wrap the new ACL entry-size checks in unlikely().
- Return -EFSCORRUPTED for malformed on-disk ACL blobs.
