CephFS doesn't had a maximum xattr size. Instead, it imposes a maximum size for the full set of an inode's xattrs names+values, which by default is 64K but it can be changed by a cluster admin.

Why not fixing this by making sure that the total length of 'name' + 'value' == 64K instead for ceph case ?
IMO we shouldn't worry about the case that the max could be changeable, we just need to test the framework works well with the default is enough. And then print a warning if the test fails to let users to know that the max size must be as default, which is 64K, or if users didn't change it then it should be a real bug in ceph.
