freevxfs: don't BUG() on unknown typed-extent type
vxfs_bmap_typed() handles four typed-extent types and calls BUG() in
its default case, so an on-disk typed extent with any other type value
crashes the kernel. It is reachable from ioctl(FIBMAP) on a regular
file:
kernel BUG at fs/freevxfs/vxfs_bmap.c:230!
RIP: vxfs_bmap_typed fs/freevxfs/vxfs_bmap.c:230 [inline]
vxfs_bmap1+0x128a/0x12d0 fs/freevxfs/vxfs_bmap.c:257
Replace the BUG() with WARN_ON_ONCE() and return 0 -- the value
vxfs_bmap_typed() already returns on failure (and from the DEV4 case
above); vxfs_getblk() maps 0 to -EIO, so the ioctl fails cleanly.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
