## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  fs/ntfs3: fix missing run load for vcn0 in attr_data_get_block_locked()  When a compressed or sparse attribute has its clusters frame-aligned, vcn is rounded down to the frame start using cmask, which can result in vcn != vcn0. In this case, vcn and vcn0 may reside in different attribute segments.  The code already handles the case where vcn is in a different segment by loading its runs before allocation. However, it fails to load runs for vcn0 when vcn0 resides in a different segment than vcn. This causes run_lookup_entry() to return SPARSE_LCN for vcn0 since its segment was never loaded into the in-memory run list, triggering the WARN_ON(1).  Fix this by adding a missing check for vcn0 after the existing vcn segment check. If vcn0 falls outside the current segment range [svcn, evcn1), find and load the attribute segment containing vcn0 before performing the run lookup.  The following scenario triggers the bug:   attr_data_get_block_locked()     vcn = vcn0 & cmask        <- vcn != vcn0 after frame alignment     load runs for vcn segment <- vcn0 segment not loaded!     attr_allocate_clusters()  <- allocation succeeds     run_lookup_entry(vcn0)    <- vcn0 not in run -> SPARSE_LCN     WARN_ON(1)                <- bug fires here!
