As Filipe pointed out in previous iteration, this could be directly
XATTR_NAME_CAPS instead of the temporary variable. I'd prefer it that
way too, XATTR_NAME_CAPS is a plain string and strings get merged at
link time. Also compiler replaces strlen("string") with the number.

This is probably copy&pasted, but the char* typecast is not necessary
and the whole expression could be

	data_ptr = (unsigned long)(di + 1) + btrfs_dir_name_len(leaf, di);

> +	read_extent_buffer(leaf, buf, data_ptr,

btrfs_dir_data_len(leaf, di) is cached as buf_len from before so it
should be used as well.
