A crafted btrfs image with incorrect chunk<->block group mapping will trigger a lot of unexpected things as the mapping is essential. Although the problem can be caught by block group item checker added in "btrfs: tree-checker: Verify block_group_item", it's still not sufficient. A sufficiently valid block group item can pass the check added by the mentioned patch but could fail to match the existing chunk. This patch will add extra block group -> chunk mapping check, to ensure we have a completely matching (start, len, flags) chunk for each block group at mount time. Here we reuse the original helper find_first_block_group(), which is already doing the basic bg -> chunk checks, adding further checks of the start/len and type flags.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
