libfs: Fix duplicate directory entry in offset_dir_lookup

next inclusion
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IBLWT7
CVE: CVE-2024-57952

Reference: https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=f70681e9e6066ab7b102e6b46a336a8ed67812ae



--------------------------------

There is an issue in the kernel:

In tmpfs, when using the "ls" command to list the contents
of a directory with a large number of files, glibc performs
the getdents call in multiple rounds. If a concurrent unlink
occurs between these getdents calls, it may lead to duplicate
directory entries in the ls output. One possible reproduction
scenario is as follows:

Create 1026 files and execute ls and rm concurrently:

for i in {1..1026}; do
    echo "This is file $i" > /tmp/dir/file$i
done

ls /tmp/dir				rm /tmp/dir/file4
	->getdents(file1026-file5)
						->unlink(file4)

	->getdents(file5,file3,file2,file1)

It is expected that the second getdents call to return file3
through file1, but instead it returns an extra file5.

The root cause of this problem is in the offset_dir_lookup
function. It uses mas_find to determine the starting position
for the current getdents call. Since mas_find locates the first
position that is greater than or equal to mas->index, when file4
is deleted, it ends up returning file5.

It can be fixed by replacing mas_find with mas_find_rev, which
finds the first position that is less than or equal to mas->index.
