Eric Biggers 2cea691500 fsverity: explicitly check for buffer overflow in build_merkle_tree()
commit 39049b69ec upstream.

The new Merkle tree construction algorithm is a bit fragile in that it
may overflow the 'root_hash' array if the tree actually generated does
not match the calculated tree parameters.

This should never happen unless there is a filesystem bug that allows
the file size to change despite deny_write_access(), or a bug in the
Merkle tree logic itself.  Regardless, it's fairly easy to check for
buffer overflow here, so let's do so.

This is a robustness improvement only; this case is not currently known
to be reachable.  I've added a Fixes tag anyway, since I recommend that
this be included in kernels that have the mentioned commit.
