Subject: [PATCH] jfs: reserve the header and use freelist from second

[syzbot reported]
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
CPU: 0 PID: 5061 Comm: syz-executor404 Not tainted 6.8.0-syzkaller-08951-gfe46a7dd189e #0
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 03/27/2024
RIP: 0010:dtInsertEntry+0xd0c/0x1780 fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c:3713
..
[Analyze]
When the pointer h has the same value as p, after writing name in UniStrncpy_to_le(),
p->header.flag will be cleared.
This will cause the previously true judgment "p->header.flag & BT-LEAF" to change
to no after writing the name operation, this leads to entering an incorrect branch
and accessing the uninitialized object ih when judging this condition for the
second time.
[Fix]
When allocating slots from the freelist, we start from the second one to preserve
the header of p from being incorrectly modified.
