PATCH 1/1 Squashfs: handle corruption of directory structure

Handle the rare case where a directory metadata block is uncompressed and corrupted, leading to a kernel oops in directory scanning (memcpy). Normally corruption is detected at the decompression stage and dealt with then, however, this will not happen if:

- metadata isn't compressed (users can optionally request no metadata compression), or
- the compressed metadata block was larger than the original, in which case the uncompressed version was used, or
- the data was corrupt after decompression

This patch fixes this by adding some sanity checks against known maximum values.
