xfs: annotate struct xfs_attr_list_context with __counted_by_ptr
Add the `__counted_by_ptr` attribute to the `buffer` field of `struct xfs_attr_list_context`. This field is used to point to a buffer of size `bufsize`. The `buffer` field is assigned in: 1. `xfs_ioc_attr_list` in `fs/xfs/xfs_handle.c` 2. `xfs_xattr_list` in `fs/xfs/xfs_xattr.c` 3. `xfs_getparents` in `fs/xfs/xfs_handle.c` (implicitly initialized to NULL) In `xfs_ioc_attr_list`, `buffer` was assigned before `bufsize`. Reorder them to ensure `bufsize` is set before `buffer` is assigned, although no access happens between them. In `xfs_xattr_list`, `buffer` was assigned before `bufsize`. Reorder them to ensure `bufsize` is set before `buffer` is assigned. In `xfs_getparents`, `buffer` is NULL (from zero initialization) and remains NULL. `bufsize` is set to a non-zero value, but since `buffer` is NULL, no access occurs. In all cases, the pointer `buffer` is not accessed before `bufsize` is set. This patch was generated by CodeMender and reviewed by Bill Wendling. Tested by running xfstests.
