jfs_readdir() converts each on-disk name into a struct jfs_dirent in a
PAGE_SIZE buffer, and stops filling the buffer when the next entry
might not fit:

	if (((long) jfs_dirent + d->namlen + 1) >
	    ((long)dirent_buf + PAGE_SIZE)) {

That check undercounts twice.  The name is written at jfs_dirent->name,
after the 14-byte header, not at jfs_dirent.  And d->namlen counts
UCS-2 characters, while jfs_strfromUCS_le() lets the codepage's
uni2char() write up to NLS_MAX_CHARSET_SIZE bytes for each one; with
iocharset=utf8 most non-ASCII characters take two or three bytes.  So
an entry that passes the check can still be written past the end of
the buffer.  Since commit de9f4f0b2c0f ("jfs: replace __get_free_page()
with kmalloc()") the buffer comes from kmalloc-4k and KASAN reports it:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in utf32_to_utf8+0x24d/0x3d0 fs/nls/nls_base.c:111
  Write of size 1 at addr ffff888039ad7000 by task syz-executor304/5946
   utf32_to_utf8+0x24d/0x3d0 fs/nls/nls_base.c:111
   uni2char+0x35/0xa0 fs/nls/nls_utf8.c:21
   jfs_strfromUCS_le+0xd2/0x3d0 fs/jfs/jfs_unicode.c:31
   jfs_readdir+0x16fd/0x33f0 fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c:2984
  The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
   allocated 4096-byte region [ffff888039ad6000, ffff888039ad7000)

Before that commit the same write went into whatever page followed.

Check against the worst case instead: the name starts at
jfs_dirent->name and each character can take NLS_MAX_CHARSET_SIZE
bytes, or one byte when no codepage is set.  The largest entry is
then 255 * 6 + 15 bytes, so an empty buffer still always takes at
least one entry and readdir keeps making progress.
