squashfs: fix read regression introduced in readahead code
Patch series "squashfs: fix some regressions introduced in the readahead code". This patchset fixes 3 regressions introduced by the recent readahead code changes. The first regression is causing "snaps" to randomly fail after a couple of hours or days, which how the regression came to light. This patch (of 3): If a file isn't a whole multiple of the page size, the last page will have trailing bytes unfilled. There was a mistake in the readahead code which did this. In particular it incorrectly assumed that the last page in the readahead page array (page[nr_pages - 1]) will always contain the last page in the block, which if we're at file end, will be the page that needs to be zero filled. But the readahead code may not return the last page in the block, which means it is unmapped and will be skipped by the decompressors (a temporary buffer used). In this case the zero filling code will zero out the wrong page, leading to data corruption. Fix this by by extending the "page actor" to return the last page if present, or NULL if a temporary buffer was used.
