I noticed that there's a crash at
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/lib/lzo/lzo1x_decompress_safe.c#L218
when testing on my system.
(I have CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS enabled)

It's also noticed that when the crash happened, nr_pages obtained by
readahead_count() is 512.
nr_pages = readahead_count(ractl); // this line

nr_pages are observed to be 32, 64, 256... These won't cause a crash.
Other values (max_pages, bsize, block...) looks normal

I'm not sure why the crash happened, but I tried to modify the mask
for a bit. After modifying the mask value to below, the crash is gone
(nr_pages are <=256).
Based on my testing on a 300K pack file, there's no performance change.

Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks!
