    xfs: Fix xfs_attr_leafblock definition · 86cbc007

    commit ffeecc52 upstream.
    
    struct xfs_attr_leafblock contains 'entries' array which is declared
    with size 1 altough it can in fact contain much more entries. Since this
    array is followed by further struct members, gcc (at least in version
    4.8.3) thinks that the array has the fixed size of 1 element and thus
    may optimize away all accesses beyond the end of array resulting in
    non-working code. This problem was only observed with userspace code in
    xfsprogs, however it's better to be safe in kernel as well and have
    matching kernel and xfsprogs definitions.
