Theodore Ts'o a805622a75 ext4: include terminating u32 in size of xattr entries when expanding inodes
In ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea(), we calculate the total size of the
xattr header, plus the xattr entries so we know how much of the
beginning part of the xattrs to move when expanding the inode extra
size.  We need to include the terminating u32 at the end of the xattr
entries, or else if there is uninitialized, non-zero bytes after the
xattr entries and before the xattr values, the list of xattr entries
won't be properly terminated.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
