[BUG] For fuzzed image whose DEV_ITEM has invalid total_bytes as 0, then kernel will just panic: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000098 #PF error: [normal kernel read fault] PGD 800000022b2bd067 P4D 800000022b2bd067 PUD 22b2bc067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 0 PID: 1106 Comm: mount Not tainted 5.0.0-rc8+ #9 RIP: 0010:btrfs_verify_dev_extents+0x2a5/0x5a0 Call Trace: open_ctree+0x160d/0x2149 btrfs_mount_root+0x5b2/0x680 [CAUSE] If device extent verification finds a deivce with 0 total_bytes, then it assumes it's a seed dummy, then search for seed devices. But in this case, there is no seed device at all, causing NULL pointer. [FIX] Since this is caused by fuzzed image, let's go the tree-check way, just add a new verification for device item.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
