Subject: [PATCH 5.1 087/128] ext4: ignore e_value_offs for xattrs with value-in-ea-inode

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>

commit e5d01196c0428a206f307e9ee5f6842964098ff0 upstream.

In other places in fs/ext4/xattr.c, if e_value_inum is non-zero, the
code ignores the value in e_value_offs.  The e_value_offs *should* be
zero, but we shouldn't depend upon it, since it might not be true in a
corrupted/fuzzed file system.
