xfs: clean up memory management in xattr scrub
Currently, the extended attribute scrubber uses a single VLA to store all the context information needed in various parts of the scrubber code. This includes xattr leaf block space usage bitmaps, and the value buffer used to check the correctness of remote xattr value block headers. We try to minimize the insanity through the use of helper functions, but this is a memory management nightmare. Clean this up by making the bitmap and value pointers explicit members of struct xchk_xattr_buf. Second, strengthen the xattr checking by teaching it to look for overlapping data structures in the shortform attr data. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
