In XFS_DAS_NODE_REMOVE_ATTR case, xfs_attr_mode_remove_attr() sets filter to XFS_ATTR_INCOMPLETE. The filter is then reset in xfs_attr_complete_op() if XFS_DA_OP_REPLACE operation is performed. The filter is not reset though if XFS just removes the attribute (args->value == NULL) with xfs_attr_defer_remove(). attr code goes to XFS_DAS_DONE state. Fix this by always resetting XFS_ATTR_INCOMPLETE filter. The replace operation already resets this filter in anyway and others are completed at this step hence don't need it.
