This implies inode_numbers are unique in AXFS? If so you can get rid of
the axfs_iget5_set/test logic. This is only necessary for filesystems
with non-unique inode numbers like cramfs.

If inode_numbers are unique, use iget_locked here.

What's the reason for splitting this into two lines, rather than

inode->i_size = AXFS_GET_INODE_FILE_SIZE(sbi, ino);

No unique per inode time? Will cause problems using AXFS for archives
etc. where preserving timestamps is important.

Unnecessary, set by iget_locked/iget_locked5

One to one mapping between inode number and inode name? No hard link
support...?

Are "." and ".." stored in the directory? If not then axfs_readdir
should fabricate them to avoid confusing applications that expect
readdir(3) to return them.

Use min() or min_t()

I assume compressed blocks can be larger than PAGE_CACHE_SIZE? This
suffers from the rather obvious inefficiency that you decompress a big
block > PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, but only copy one PAGE_CACHE_SIZE page out of
it. If multiple files are being read simultaneously (a common
occurrence), then each is going to replace your one cached uncompressed
block (sbi->current_cnode_index), leading to decompressing the same
blocks over and over again on sequential file access.

readpage file A, index 1 -> decompress block X
readpage file B, index 1 -> decompress block Y (replaces X)
readpage file A, index 2 -> repeated decompress of block X (replaces Y)
readpage file B, index 2 -> repeated decompress of block Y (replaces X)

and so on.

Again, min() or min_t(). Lots of these.
