cc'ing linux-xfs, since I'm sure this has come up there and bcachefs and
xfs verify and fsck are structured similararly at a very high level -
I'd like to get their input.

Ok, this is an interesting one.

So we don't seem to be checking for invwalid i_mode at all - that's a bug.

But if we don't want to be exposing invalid i_modes at all, that's
tricky, since we (currently) can only repair when running fsck. "This is
invalid and we never want to expose this" checks are done in bkey
.invalid methods, and those can only cause the key to be deleted - we
can't run complex repair in e.g. btree node read, and that's what would
be required here (e.g. checking the extents and dirents btrees to guess
if this should be a regular file or a directory).

Long term I plan on running our existing fsck checks (including repair)
in our normal runtime paths - whenever we're looking at one or more keys
and there's a fsck check we can run, just run it.

I wasn't planning on doing that for awhile, because I'm waiting on
getting comprehensive filesystem error injection merged so we can make
sure those repair paths are all well tested before running them
automatically like that, but if this is a security issue perhaps as a
special case we should do that now.

Thoughts?
