This was also found by syzbot a couple of months ago. It's already fixed
in the -mm tree if you want to test it.

I'll try to fix these two and get back to you. It may take a couple of days.

The xattr implementation is a mess. I found many bugs myself just by
attempting to use it. I will take a look, but I can't promise to be able
to help. If it was up to me I would much rather get rid of xattr support
entirely, although I suppose somebody might be using it.
