[PATCH linux-next] jffs2: reduce stack usage in jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem()

From: Fabian Frederick
Date: Tue May 09 2017 - 16:30:20 EST


Use kcalloc() for allocation/flush of 128 pointers table to
reduce stack usage.

Function now returns -ENOMEM or 0 on success.

stackusage
Before:
./fs/jffs2/xattr.c:775 jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem 1208
dynamic,bounded

After:
./fs/jffs2/xattr.c:775 jffs2_build_xattr_subsystem 192
dynamic,bounded

Also update definition when CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_XATTR is not enabled

Tested with an MTD mount point and some user set/getfattr.
