[PATCH] xfs: check da node block pad field during scrub

From: Yuto Ohnuki

Date: Sat Apr 04 2026 - 10:31:08 EST


The da node block header (xfs_da3_node_hdr) contains a __pad32 field
that should always be zero. Add a check for this during directory and
attribute btree scrubbing so that non-zero padding is flagged as
corruption.
