Oh, sorry I didn't read the full hints, could you check if
the following patch resolve the issue (space-damaged)?

diff --git a/fs/erofs/data.c b/fs/erofs/data.c
index 6a329c329f43..701490b3ef7d 100644

                 return;

+       flush_dcache_folio(folio);
         folio_end_read(folio, !(v & EROFS_ONLINEFOLIO_EIO));
  }

Thanks,
