Subject: [PATCH 1/2] omfs: fix potential oops when directory size is corrupted

Testing with a modified fsfuzzer reveals a couple of locations in omfs
where filesystem variables are ultimately used as loop counters with
insufficient sanity checking.  In this case, dir->i_size is used to
compute the number of buckets in the directory hash.  If too large,
readdir will overrun a buffer.

Since it's an invariant that dir->i_size is equal to the sysblock
size, and we already sanity check that, just use that value instead.
This fixes the following oops:
