The "bufsize" comes from the root user. If "bufsize" is negative then,
because of type promotion, neither of the validation checks at the start
of the function are able to catch it:
if (bufsize < sizeof(struct xfs_attrlist) ||
bufsize > XFS_XATTR_LIST_MAX)
return -EINVAL;
This means "bufsize" will trigger (WARN_ON_ONCE(size > INT_MAX)) in
kvmalloc_node(). Fix this by changing the type from int to size_t.

It's sort of hard to figure out which Fixes tag to use... Maybe:
Fixes: 7661809d493b ("mm: don't allow oversized kvmalloc() calls")
so it gets backported to the kernels which have the warning?
