Subject: [GIT PULL] erofs fixes for 6.11-rc5

Hi Linus,

Could you consider these patches for 6.11-rc5?

As I mentioned in [1], there is a regression which could cause system
hang due to page migration.  The corresponding fix [2] was landed
upstream through MM tree last week, therefore large folios can be safely
allowed for compressed inodes and stress tests have been running on my
fleet for over 20 days without any regression.  Users have explicitly
requested this for months, so let's allow large folios for EROFS full
cases now for wider testing.

Additionally, there is a fix which addresses invalid memory accesses on
a failure path triggered by fault injection and two minor cleanups to
simplify the codebase.

All commits have been in -next except for Sandeep's new reviewed-by.
No potential merge conflict is observed.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
