4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hou Tao <hout...@huawei.com>

When a file have multiple xattrs and the passed buffer is
smaller than the required size, jffs2_listxattr() should
return -ERANGE instead of continue, else Oops may occur
due to memory corruption.

Also remove the unnecessary check ("rc < 0"), because
xhandle->list(...) will not return an error number.

Spotted by generic/377 in xfstests-dev.

NB: The problem had been fixed by commit 764a5c6b1fa4 ("xattr
handlers: Simplify list operation") in v4.5-rc1, but the
modification in that commit may be too much because it modifies
all file-systems which implement xattr, so I create a single
patch for jffs2 to fix the problem.
