In fact, this is *exactly* what I had before Dave suggested to keep it
simple.  After moving the code back into common/attr, where's how the
generic code would look like:

+       ceph)
+		# CephFS does have a limit for the whole set of names+values
+		# attributes in a file.  Thus, it is necessary to get the sizes
+		# of all names and values already existent and subtract them to
+		# the (default) maximum, which is 64k.
+		local len=0
+		while read line; do
+			# skip 1st line
+			[ "$line" != "${line#'#'}" ] && continue
+			n=$(echo $line | awk -F"=0x" '{print $1}')
+			v=$(echo $line | awk -F"=0x" '{print $2}')
+			nlen=${#n}
+			vlen=${#v}
+			# total is the sum of the name len and the value len
+			# divided by 2 because we're dumping them in hex format
+			t=$(($nlen + $vlen / 2))
+			len=$(($len + $t))
+		done <<< $(_getfattr -d -e hex $file 2> /dev/null)
+		echo $((65536 - $max_attrval_namelen - $len))
+		;;

so... yeah, I'm not particularly gifted on shell, it could probably be
done in more clever/cleaner ways.  Anyway, I'm open to revisit this if
this is the preferred solution.

Thanks David.  (And sorry!  I completely forgot to include you on CC as I
had promised.)
