xfs: xfs_bmap_add_attrfork_local is too generic
commit 1e82379b018ceed0f0912327c60d73107dacbcb3 upstream. When we are converting local data to an extent format as a result of adding an attribute, the type of data contained in the local fork determines the behaviour that needs to occur. xfs_bmap_add_attrfork_local() already handles the directory data case specially by using S_ISDIR() and calling out to xfs_dir2_sf_to_block(), but with verifiers we now need to handle each different type of metadata specially and different metadata formats require different verifiers (and eventually block header initialisation). There is only a single place that we add and attribute fork to the inode, but that is in the attribute code and it knows nothing about the specific contents of the data fork. It is only the case of local data that is the issue here, so adding code to hadnle this case in the attribute specific code is wrong. Hence we are really stuck trying to detect the data fork contents in xfs_bmap_add_attrfork_local() and performing the correct callout there. Luckily the current cases can be determined by S_IS* macros, and we can push the work off to data specific callouts, but each of those callouts does a lot of work in common with xfs_bmap_local_to_extents(). The only reason that this fails for symlinks right now is is that xfs_bmap_local_to_extents() assumes the data fork contains extent data, and so attaches a a bmap extent data verifier to the buffer and simply copies the data fork information straight into it. To fix this, allow us to pass a "formatting" callback into xfs_bmap_local_to_extents() which is responsible for setting the buffer type, initialising it and copying the data fork contents over to the new buffer. This allows callers to specify how they want to format the new buffer (which is necessary for the upcoming CRC enabled metadata blocks) and hence make xfs_bmap_local_to_extents() useful for any type of data fork content.
