Desmond Cheong Zhi Xi 1738bcf9e6 ntfs: fix validity check for file name attribute 
commit d98e4d9541 upstream.

When checking the file name attribute, we want to ensure that it fits
within the bounds of ATTR_RECORD.  To do this, we should check that (attr
record + file name offset + file name length) < (attr record + attr record
length).

However, the original check did not include the file name offset in the
calculation.  This means that corrupted on-disk metadata might not caught
by the incorrect file name check, and lead to an invalid memory access.

An example can be seen in the crash report of a memory corruption error
found by Syzbot:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=a1a1e379b225812688566745c3e2f7242bffc246

Adding the file name offset to the validity check fixes this error and
passes the Syzbot reproducer test.

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.
