CVE-2022-49879

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ext4: fix BUG_ON() when directory entry has invalid rec_len

The rec_len field in the directory entry has to be a multiple of 4.  A
corrupted filesystem image can be used to hit a BUG() in
ext4_rec_len_to_disk(), called from make_indexed_dir().

The fix simply adds a call to ext4_check_dir_entry() to validate the
directory entry, returning -EFSCORRUPTED if the entry is invalid.
