btw, may I ask what's the erofs-utils version?
erofs-utils 1.9?

I guess it's related to a relatively new experimental
feature (-E48bit + encoded extents + zstd) introduced in v6.15.

If you don't use this new feature, the issue may not be
reproduced anymore.

May be You know how to fix it or some ideas? Because we are new at erofs and need to discover and
learn its source code.

Thanks
