Subject: [PATCH 5/6] fs/ntfs: Fix an OOB read when parsing a volume label

This fix introduces checks to ensure that an NTFS volume label is always
read from the corresponding file record segment.

The current NTFS code allows the volume label string to be read from an
arbitrary, attacker-chosen memory location. However, the bytes read are
always treated as UTF-16LE. So, the final string displayed is mostly
unreadable and it can't be easily converted back to raw bytes.

The lack of this check is a minor issue, likely not causing a significant
data leak.
