In __ceph_build_xattrs_blob(), if a ceph inode's extended attributes are marked dirty, all attributes recorded in its rb_tree index are formatted into a "blob" buffer. The target buffer is recorded in ceph_inode->i_xattrs.prealloc_blob, and it is expected to exist and be of sufficient size to hold the attributes. The extended attributes are marked dirty in two cases: when a new attribute is added to the inode; or when one is removed. In the former case work is done to ensure the prealloc_blob buffer is properly set up, but in the latter it is not. Change the logic in ceph_removexattr() so it matches what is done in ceph_setxattr(). Note that this is done in a way that keeps the two blocks of code nearly identical, in anticipation of a subsequent patch that encapsulates some of this logic into one or more helper routines.
