[PATCH v6 2/2] ocfs2: validate external xattr entries when reading metadata

ocfs2_validate_xattr_block() checks the xattr block header before the
block reaches higher-level xattr users, but it does not verify that a
non-indexed block's xh_count and entry offsets fit inside the block.
Indexed buckets likewise reach list/get consumers after ECC without an
entry-bounds check.

Reuse the xattr entry validator for non-indexed external xattr blocks
and indexed buckets at metadata read time.  The enum entry type selects
the storage geometry: non-indexed blocks use the xattr block payload,
while buckets keep the entry table bounded by the first bucket block and
check name/value offsets against the bucket block they target.

Reject corrupted external xattr metadata before listxattr() or
getxattr() can walk out-of-range entry arrays or name/value offsets.

Validation reproduced this kernel report:
