Because xattrs can be over a page in size, we need to handle possible
krealloc errors to avoid warnings. If the allocation does fail, fall
back to kmem_alloc_large, with a memcpy.
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.
