Subject: [PATCH][next][V2] hfsplus: remove dev_err messages and fix errno values

While exercising hfsplus with stress-ng with xattr tests the kernel
log was spammed with many error messages. The need to emit these
messages is not necessary, so remove them. Also fix the errno returns,
for XATTR_CREATE errors these should be -EEXIST, and for XATTR_REPLACE
this should be -ENODATA.

Kudos to Matthew Wilcox for spotting the need for -EEXIST instead of
-EOPNOTSUPP.

V2: Also remove "cannot replace xattr" message and fix the errno returns
