Squashfs currently has a sanity check for block_size less than or
equal to the maximum block_size (1 Mbyte). This catches some
superblock corruption, but obviously with a block_size maximum
of 1 Mbyte there's 7 correct values (4K, 8K, 16K, 32K, ... etc) and
a lot of incorrect values which are not caught by this check.
The Squashfs superblock, however, has both a block_size and
a block_log (2^block_log == block_size). Checking that the block_size
matches the block_log is a much more robust check. Corruption of the
superblock is unlikely to produce values which match, and it also
ensures the block_size is an exact power of two.

One off error in the f_pos check. If f_pos is 3 or less don't
bother reading the index because we're at the start of the
directory, and we obviously already know where that is on disk.
This eliminates an unnecessary read.

Most of these were never used by the kernel code, but belong to
the time when the header file was used by both the kernel code
and the user space tools.

Comment was written when Squashfs only supported zlib compression.
This comment is now misleading given Squashfs supports other
compression algorithms.

Seeing that just about every destructor got that INIT_LIST_HEAD() copied into
it, there is no point whatsoever keeping this INIT_LIST_HEAD in inode_init_once();
the cost of taking it into inode_init_always() will be negligible for pipes
and sockets and negative for everything else. Not to mention the removal of
boilerplate code from ->destroy_inode() instances...

The le64_to_cpu() forces the calculation to be unsigned, with
the effect that it can underflow leading to an incorrect large
value.
This bug only triggers in rare(ish) circumstances, an empty file
encoded as an extended regular file or a completely sparse file.
Normally empty files are encoded as a regular file rather than as
an extended regular file (and the regular file i_blocks calculation
doesn't have this bug). To save space regular file inodes are
optimised to encode the most commonly occurring files. Less
common regular files are encoded using extended regular file inodes
which contain extra information.
Empty files with nlinks greater than 1, and or empty files
with extended attributes are encoded using extended regular file
inodes and they will hit this bug.

A Squashfs filesystem containing nothing but an empty directory,
although unusual and ultimately pointless, is still valid.
The directory_table >= next_table sanity check rejects these
filesystems as invalid because the directory_table is empty and
equal to next_table.

squashfs_cache_get() iterates over all entries to search for
block its looking for. Often get() / put() are called for
same block.
If we cache the current entry index, then we can optimise the
subsequent *_get() calls.

This commit adds an option to set the device block size used to 4K.
By default Squashfs sets the device block size (sb_min_blocksize) to 1K
or the smallest block size supported by the block device (if larger).
This, because blocks are packed together and unaligned in Squashfs,
should reduce latency.
This, however, gives poor performance on MTD NAND devices where
the optimal I/O size is 4K (even though the devices can support
smaller block sizes).
Using a 4K device block size may also improve overall I/O
performance for some file access patterns (e.g. sequential
accesses of files in filesystem order) on all media.

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.
Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

Squashfs: Make ZLIB compression support optional
Squashfs: Update documentation for XZ and add squashfs-tools devel tree
Squashfs now supports XZ and LZO compression in addition to ZLIB.
As such it no longer makes sense to always include ZLIB support.
In particular embedded systems may only use LZO or XZ compression, and
the ability to exclude ZLIB support will reduce kernel size.

d_splice_alias(NULL, dentry) is equivalent to d_add(dentry, NULL), NULL
