The on disk format for this field is defined as:

typedef struct xfs_attr_leaf_name_local {
        __be16  valuelen;               /* number of bytes in value */
        __u8    namelen;                /* length of name bytes */
        __u8    nameval[1];             /* name/value bytes */
} xfs_attr_leaf_name_local_t

If someone wants to do change the on-disk format definition to use
"kernel proper" flex arrays in both the kernel code and user space,
update all the documentation and do all the validation work that
on-disk format changes require for all XFS disk structures that are
defined this way, then we'll fix this.

But as it stands, these structures have been defined this way for 25
years and the code accessing them has been around for just as long.
The code is not broken and it does not need fixing. We have way more
important things to be doing that fiddling with on disk format
definitions and long standing, working code just to shut up UBSAN
and/or syzbot.

WONTFIX, NOTABUG.

-Dave.
