...I take a simple try with the following erofs-utils diff and
a directory containing enwik9 only, with the latest kernel (5.3-rc)
and command line is
mkfs/mkfs.erofs -d9 enwik9.img testdir.

diff --git a/lib/inode.c b/lib/inode.c
index 581f263..2540338 100644

I tested the corrupted image with looped device and real blockdevice
by dd, and it seems fine....

Could you give me more hints how to reproduce that? and I will
dig into more maybe it needs more conditions...
