Phillip Lougher 91b99db7a9 Squashfs: fix uninit-value in squashfs_get_parent 
commit 74058c0a9f upstream.

Syzkaller reports a "KMSAN: uninit-value in squashfs_get_parent" bug.

This is caused by open_by_handle_at() being called with a file handle
containing an invalid parent inode number.  In particular the inode number
is that of a symbolic link, rather than a directory.

Squashfs_get_parent() gets called with that symbolic link inode, and
accesses the parent member field.

	unsigned int parent_ino = squashfs_i(inode)->parent;

Because non-directory inodes in Squashfs do not have a parent value, this
is uninitialised, and this causes an uninitialised value access.

The fix is to initialise parent with the invalid inode 0, which will cause
an EINVAL error to be returned.

Regular inodes used to share the parent field with the block_list_start
field.  This is removed in this commit to enable the parent field to
contain the invalid inode number 0.

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 reStructuredText 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.
