ext4: allocate extended attribute value in vmalloc area
commit cc12a6f2 upstream. Now, extended attribute value maximum length is 64K. The memory requested here does not need continuous physical addresses, so it is appropriate to use kvmalloc to request memory. At the same time, it can also cope with the situation that the extended attribute will become longer in the future.
