Subject: xattr: fix check for simultaneous glibc header inclusion

The guard was introduced in ea1a8217b06b41 ("xattr: guard against
simultaneous glibc header inclusion") but it is using #ifdef to check for
a define that is either set to 1 or 0.  Fix it to use #if instead.

* Without this patch:
  $ { echo "#include <sys/xattr.h>"; echo "#include <linux/xattr.h>"; } | gcc -E -Iinclude/uapi - >/dev/null
  include/uapi/linux/xattr.h:19:0: warning: "XATTR_CREATE" redefined [enabled by default]
   #define XATTR_CREATE 0x1 /* set value, fail if attr already exists */
   ^
  /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/xattr.h:32:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
   #define XATTR_CREATE XATTR_CREATE
   ^

* With this patch:
  $ { echo "#include <sys/xattr.h>"; echo "#include <linux/xattr.h>"; } | gcc -E -Iinclude/uapi - >/dev/null
  (no warnings)
