Hi!

We recently discovered some bugs through self-discovery and testing in
erofs ondemand loading mode, and this patchset is mainly used to fix
them. These patches are relatively simple changes, and I would be excited
to discuss them together with everyone. Below is a brief introduction to
each patch:

Patch 1: Fix for wrong block_number calculated in ondemand write.

Patch 2: Fix for wrong length return value in ondemand write.

Patch 3: Fix missing position update in ondemand write, for scenarios
involving read-ahead, invoking the write syscall.

Patch 4: Previously, the last redundant data was cleared during the umount
phase. This patch remove unnecessary data in advance.

Patch 5: Code clean up for cachefiles_commit_tmpfile().

Patch 6: Modify error return value in cachefiles_daemon_secctx().

Patch 7: Fix object->file Null-pointer-dereference problem.

Patch 8: Fix for memory out of order in fscache_create_volume().
