Thanks for catching this. This is a valid issue, but it has no real
impact to the current kernels since such pcluster in practice will be
!inplace_io and trigger "if (nrpages_out == 1 && !rq->inplace_io) {"
above for upstream strategies.

Our customized lz4 implementation will return 0 if success instead, so
it has no issue to our previous products as well.

For such cases, how about updating z_erofs_lz4_decompress() to return
0 if success instead rather than outputsize. Since I'll return 0 if
success for LZMA as well.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
