Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: zlib: fix avail_in bytes for s390 zlib HW compression path Since the input data length passed to zlib_compress_folios() can be
arbitrary, always setting strm.avail_in to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE may
cause read-in bytes to exceed the input range. Currently this triggers
an assert in btrfs_compress_folios() on the debug kernel (see below).
