NAK, this patch is still not correct -- if we add an attr fork here, we
also have to xfs_add_attr().  ATTR protects attr forks in general,
whereas ATTR2 only protects dynamic fork sizes.

	if (init_xattrs && (xfs_has_attr(mp) || xfs_has_attr2(mp))) {
		ip->i_forkoff = xfs_default_attroffset(ip) >> 3;
		xfs_ifork_init_attr(ip, XFS_DINODE_FMT_EXTENTS, 0);

		if (!xfs_has_attr(mp)) {
			spin_lock(&mp->m_sb_lock);
			xfs_add_attr2(mp);
			spin_unlock(&mp->m_sb_lock);
			xfs_log_sb(tp);
		}
	}

--D
