CephFS doesn't have a maximum xattr size. Instead, it imposes a maximum
size for the full set of xattrs names+values, which by default is 64K.
And since ceph reports 4M as the blocksize (the default ceph object size),
generic/486 will fail in this filesystem because it will end up using
XATTR_SIZE_MAX to set the size of the 2nd (big) xattr value.
The fix is to adjust the max size in attr_replace_test so that it takes
into account the initial xattr name and value lengths.
