Subject: [PATCH] jfs: fix shift-out-of-bounds in dbJoin
dbJoin() can receive a corrupted newval from on-disk metadata that
exceeds the valid range for the BUDSIZE macro's shift operation.
When newval is larger than budmin + l2nleafs, the shift produces
undefined behavior detected by UBSAN.
Add a sanity check on newval before the shift to reject corrupted
values.
