Because xattrs can be over a page in size, we need to handle possible krealloc errors to avoid warnings The warning: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 20255 at mm/page_alloc.c:3446 get_page_from_freelist+0x100b/0x1690 is caused when sizes larger that a page are allocated with the __GFP_NOFAIL flag option. We encounter this error now because attr values can be up to 64k in size. So we cannot use __GFP_NOFAIL, and we need to handle the error code if the allocation fails.
