[ Note this patch doesn't apply to v6.14 as it was obsoleted by commit
e2d46f2ec332 ("netfs: Change the read result collector to only use one
work item"). ]
At the beginning of the function, folio queues with marks3==0 are
skipped, but after that, the `marks3` field is ignored. If one such
queue is found, `slot` is set to 64 (because `__ffs(0)==64`), leading
to a buffer overflow in the folioq_folio() call. The resulting crash
may look like this:
