jfs: fix xattr value size overflow in __jfs_setxattr
There is a potential overflow if the specified EA value size is
greater than USHRT_MAX because the size of value is limited by
the on-disk format (i.e, __le16), this issue could be reflected
via the tests below:
# touch /jfs/testfile
# setfattr -n user.comment -v `perl -e 'print "A"x65536'` /jfs/testfile
setfattr: /jfs/testfile: Invalid argument
Syslog:
... jfs_xsetattr: xattr_size = 21, new_size = 65557
This patch add pre-checkups of EA value size against USHRT_MAX to
avoid this problem, and return -E2BIG which is consistent with the
VFS setxattr interface. Moreover, fix the debug code to print the
correct function name.
With this fix:
setfattr: /jfs/testfile: Argument list too long
