Your current example maps id 0 in the filesystem to id 1001 in the
mount. But since no files with id 0 exist in the filesystem you're
illustrating that unmapped ids are correctly reported as overflow{g,u}id.

I think what you'd rather want to show is something like this:

5. ls -ln /mnt/erofs/
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 1000 1000 0 May 17 15:26 file

6. mount-idmapped --map-mount b:1000:1001:1 /mnt/erofs/ /mnt/scratch_erofs/

7. ls -ln /mnt/scratch_erofs/
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 1001 1001 0 May 17 15:26 file

where id 1000 in the filesystem maps to id 1001 in the mount.

Overall this is currently the smallest patch to support idmapped mounts.

Is erofs integrated with xfstests in any way?
For read-only filesystems we probably only need to verify that {g,u}id
are correctly reported. All the writable aspects are irrelevant.

Looks good,
