Luís Henriques d93231a6bc ceph: prevent a client from exceeding the MDS maximum xattr size
The MDS tries to enforce a limit on the total key/values in extended
attributes.  However, this limit is enforced only if doing a synchronous
operation (MDS_OP_SETXATTR) -- if we're buffering the xattrs, the MDS
doesn't have a chance to enforce these limits.

This patch adds support for decoding the xattrs maximum size setting that is
distributed in the mdsmap.  Then, when setting an xattr, the kernel client
will revert to do a synchronous operation if that maximum size is exceeded.

While there, fix a dout() that would trigger a printk warning:

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.
