Commit 28b783e47ad7 ("xfs: bufferhead chains are invalid after end_page_writeback") fixed one use-after-free issue by pre-calculating the loop conditionals before calling bh->b_end_io() in the end_io processing loop, but it assigned 'next' pointer before checking end offset boundary & breaking the loop, at which point the bh might be freed already, and caused use-after-free. This is caught by KASAN when running fstests generic/127 on sub-page block size XFS.
