Subject: [PATCH 1/2] afs: Fix accessing YFS xattrs on a non-YFS server

If someone attempts to access YFS-related xattrs (e.g. afs.yfs.acl) on a
file on a non-YFS AFS server (such as OpenAFS), then the kernel will jump
to a NULL function pointer because the afs_fetch_acl_operation descriptor
doesn't point to a function for issuing an operation on a non-YFS
server[1].

Fix this by making afs_wait_for_operation() check that the issue_afs_rpc
method is set before jumping to it and setting -ENOTSUPP if not.  This fix
also covers other potential operations that also only exist on YFS servers.

afs_xattr_get/set_yfs() then need to translate -ENOTSUPP to -ENODATA as the
former error is internal to the kernel.

The bug shows up as an oops like the following:

	BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
	[...]
	Code: Unable to access opcode bytes at RIP 0xffffffffffffffd6.
	[...]
	Call Trace:
	 afs_wait_for_operation+0x83/0x1b0 [kafs]
	 afs_xattr_get_yfs+0xe6/0x270 [kafs]
	 __vfs_getxattr+0x59/0x80
	 vfs_getxattr+0x11c/0x140

	 do_syscall_64+0x49/0xc0
	 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9
	RIP: 0033:0x7fb120a9defe

This was triggered with "cp -a" which attempts to copy xattrs, including
afs ones, but is easier to reproduce with getfattr, e.g.:

	getfattr -d -m ".*" /afs/openafs.org/
