[PATCH] reiserfs: fix broken xattr handling (heap corruption, bad retval)

[Jann Horn]

This fixes the following issues:

 - When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that each
   individual name fits, but the concatenation of all names doesn't
   fit, reiserfs_listxattr() overflows the supplied buffer. This leads to
   a kernel heap overflow (verified using KASAN) followed by an
   out-of-bounds usercopy and is therefore a security bug.
 - When a buffer size is supplied to reiserfs_listxattr() such that a name
   doesn't fit, -ERANGE should be returned. But reiserfs instead just
   truncates the list of names; I have verified that if the only xattr on
   a file has a longer name than the supplied buffer length, listxattr()
   incorrectly returns zero.

With my patch applied, -ERANGE is returned in both cases and the memory
corruption doesn't happen anymore.

Credit for making me clean this code up a bit goes to Al Viro, who pointed
out that the ->actor calling convention is suboptimal and should be
changed.
