[PATCH v3 1/2] initramfs: set extended attributes

From: Mimi Zohar <zohar at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch adds xattrs to a file, with name and value taken from a supplied
buffer. The data format is:

<xattr #N data len (ASCII, 8 chars)><xattr #N name>\0<xattr #N value>

[kamensky: fixed restoring of xattrs for symbolic links by using
           sys_lsetxattr() instead of sys_setxattr()]

[sassu: removed state management, kept only do_setxattrs(), replaced
        sys_lsetxattr() with vfs_setxattr(), added check for
        xattr_entry_size, added check for hdr->c_size, replaced strlen()
        with strnlen(); moved do_setxattrs() before do_name()]
