ocfs2: fix listxattr handling when the buffer is full
[BUG]
If an OCFS2 inode has both inline and block-based xattrs, listxattr()
can return a size larger than the caller's buffer when the inline names
consume that buffer exactly.
kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102!

[CAUSE]
Commit 936b8834366e (ocfs2: Refactor xattr list and remove
ocfs2_xattr_handler().) replaced the old per-handler list accounting
with ocfs2_xattr_list_entry(), but it kept using size == 0 to detect
probe mode.
That assumption stops being true once ocfs2_listxattr() finishes the
inline-xattr pass. If the inline names fill the caller buffer exactly,
the block-xattr pass runs with a non-NULL buffer and a remaining size of
zero. ocfs2_xattr_list_entry() then skips the bounds check, keeps
counting block names, and returns a positive size larger than the
supplied buffer.
[FIX]
Detect probe mode by testing whether the destination buffer pointer is
NULL instead of whether the remaining size is zero.
That restores the pre-refactor behavior and matches the OCFS2 getxattr
helpers. Once the remaining buffer reaches zero while more names are
left, the block-xattr pass now returns -ERANGE instead of reporting a
size larger than the allocated list buffer.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
