ntfs_index_walk_down() used to update the index traversal depth
directly before writing parent_pos[] and parent_vcn[]. A malformed
directory index with too many child-node levels can therefore advance
pindex past MAX_PARENT_VCN and write past the fixed arrays in struct
ntfs_index_context, corrupting context state used by later index
traversal.

Use ntfs_icx_parent_inc() for walk-down transitions so the existing
depth limit is enforced before the arrays are updated. Make the helper
check the limit before incrementing pindex so failed callers do not
leave the context at an out-of-range depth.

This is reachable by iterating a crafted NTFS directory after the volume
has been mounted, including read-only mounts. The reproducer uses
getdents64() on an index root that points to an excessively deep chain
of child index blocks.

A crafted directory index with a chain of child-node entries reproduced
UBSAN array-index-out-of-bounds reports in ntfs_index_walk_down() and
subsequent KASAN reports in ntfs_index_walk_up(). With this change, the
same image is rejected with "Index is over 32 level deep" and no KASAN
or UBSAN report is emitted.

Changes since v1:
  - In the is_in_root walk-down branch, drop the ntfs_icx_parent_inc()
    call and the kvfree(ib) error handling; restore the direct
    ictx->pindex = 1 assignment, per review by Namjae Jeon. The helper
    call there was unnecessary because is_in_root == true implies
    pindex == 0, and the resulting error path was dead code. Add a
    comment documenting the invariant. The non-root walk-down branch
    keeps using ntfs_icx_parent_inc() since pindex can approach
    MAX_PARENT_VCN there.
