syzkaller reported a memleak:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=62f37ff612f0021641eda5b17f056f1668aa9aed

unreferenced object 0xffff88811009c7f8 (size 136):
  ...
  backtrace:
    [<ffffffff821db19b>] z_erofs_do_read_page+0x99b/0x1740
    [<ffffffff821dee9e>] z_erofs_readahead+0x24e/0x580
    [<ffffffff814bc0d6>] read_pages+0x86/0x3d0
    ...

syzkaller constructed a case: in z_erofs_register_pcluster(),
ztailpacking = false and map->m_pa = zero. This makes pcl->obj.index be
zero although pcl is not a inline pcluster.

Then following path adds refcount for grp, but the refcount won't be put
because pcl is inline.

z_erofs_readahead()
  z_erofs_do_read_page() # for another page
    z_erofs_collector_begin()
      erofs_find_workgroup()
        erofs_workgroup_get()

Since it's illegal for the block address of a pcluster to be zero, add
check here to avoid registering the pcluster which would be leaked.

v1 -> v2:
As Gao's advice, we should fail to register pcluster if m_pa is zero.
Maked it this way and changed the commit message.

v2 -> v3:
Slightly fix commit message and add -next tag.
