ext4_xattr_block_set() calls dquot_alloc_block() to charge for an xattr
block when new references are made. However if dquot_initialize() hasn't
been called on an inode, request for charging is effectively ignored
because ext4_inode_info->i_dquot is not initialized yet.
Add dquot_initialize() to call paths that lead to ext4_xattr_block_set().

ext4_xattr_check_entry() was redundant with validation of the full xattr
entries list in ext4_xattr_check_entries(), which all callers also did.
ext4_xattr_check_entry() also didn't actually do correct validation;
specifically, it never checked that the value doesn't overlap the xattr
names, nor did it account for padding when checking whether the xattr
value overflows the available space. So remove it to eliminate any
potential confusion.

It was possible for an xattr value to have a very large size, which
would then pass validation on 32-bit architectures due to a pointer
wraparound. Fix this by validating the size in a way which avoids
pointer wraparound.
It was also possible that a value's size would fit in the available
space but its padded size would not. This would cause an out-of-bounds
memory write in ext4_xattr_set_entry when replacing the xattr value.
For example, if an xattr value of unpadded size 253 bytes went until the
very end of the inode or block, then using setxattr(2) to replace this
xattr's value with 256 bytes would cause a write to the 3 bytes past the
end of the inode or buffer, and the new xattr value would be incorrectly
truncated. Fix this by requiring that the padded size fit in the
available space rather than the unpadded size.

Conditions checking whether there is enough free space in an xattr block
and when xattr is large enough to make enough space in the inode forgot
to account for the fact that inode need not be completely filled up with
xattrs. Thus we could move unnecessarily many xattrs out of inode or
even falsely claim there is not enough space to expand the inode. We
also forgot to update the amount of free space in xattr block when moving
more xattrs and thus could decide to move too big xattr resulting in
unexpected failure.
Fix these problems by properly updating free space in the inode and
xattr block as we move xattrs. To simplify the math, avoid shifting
xattrs after removing each one xattr and instead just shift xattrs only
once there is enough free space in the inode.

Protect from recursion using EXT4_STATE_NO_EXPAND inode flag and move
its management into ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea() since its manipulation
is safe there (due to xattr_sem) from possible races with
ext4_xattr_set_handle() which plays with it as well.

The code in ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea() treated new_extra_isize
argument sometimes as the desired target i_extra_isize and sometimes as
the amount by which we need to grow current i_extra_isize. These happen
to coincide when i_extra_isize is 0 which used to be the common case and
so nobody noticed this until recently when we added i_projid to the
inode and so i_extra_isize now needs to grow from 28 to 32 bytes.
The result of these bugs was that we sometimes unnecessarily decided to
move xattrs out of inode even if there was enough space and we often
ended up corrupting in-inode xattrs because arguments to
ext4_xattr_shift_entries() were just wrong. This could demonstrate
itself as BUG_ON in ext4_xattr_shift_entries() triggering.
Fix the problem by introducing new isize_diff variable and use it where

To reduce amount of damage caused by single bad block, we limit number
of inodes sharing an xattr block to 1024. Thus there can be more xattr
blocks with the same contents when there are lots of files with the same
extended attributes. These xattr blocks naturally result in hash
collisions and can form long hash chains and we unnecessarily check each
such block only to find out we cannot use it because it is already
shared by too many inodes.
Add a reusable flag to cache entries which is cleared when a cache entry
has reached its maximum refcount. Cache entries which are not marked
reusable are skipped by mb_cache_entry_find_{first,next}. This
significantly speeds up mbcache when there are many same xattr blocks.
For example for xattr-bench with 5 values and each process handling
20000 files, the run for 64 processes is 25x faster with this patch.
Even for 8 processes the speedup is almost 3x. We have also verified
that for situations where there is only one xattr block of each kind,
the patch doesn't have a measurable cost.

function can call sync_dirty_buffer() which would deadlock. Luckily in
nojournal mode the race is harmless (we only dirty already freed buffer)
and thus for nojournal mode we leave the dirtying outside of the buffer
lock.

This patch adds new interfaces to create and destory cache,
ext4_xattr_create_cache() and ext4_xattr_destroy_cache(), and remove
the cache creation and destory calls from ex4_init_xattr() and
ext4_exitxattr() in fs/ext4/xattr.c.
fs/ext4/super.c has been changed so that when a filesystem is mounted
a cache is allocated and attched to its ext4_sb_info structure.
fs/mbcache.c has been changed so that only one slab allocator is
allocated and used by all mbcache structures.

The function ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea() doesn't need the size of all
of the extended attribute headers. So if we don't calculate it when
it is unneeded, it we can skip some undeeded memory references, and as
a bonus, we eliminate some kvetching by static code analysis tools.
