[PATCH] xattr: fix uninitialized out-param

[Daniel Xu]

`removed_sized` isn't correctly initialized (as the doc comment
suggests) on memory allocation failures. Fix by moving initialization up
a bit.

Fixes: 0c47383ba3bd ("kernfs: Add option to enable user xattrs")

I'm sending this through the cgroup tree b/c the original patchset went
through it. I don't believe the patchset has made its way into mainline
yet. Hopefully this is ok.
