We have a test that stresses allocated extents vs attributes in the
xfs_fsr swapext test (227), but that does not take into account
delalloc extents. It sounds like it would be relatively easy to
write a regression test for this particular case - create a file
with a bunch of attributes, then create a number of delalloc data
extents, then remove the attributes to trigger the condition in
xfs_attr_shortform_remove()....

While you are touching that function, can you fix all the whitespace
damage as well? (lots of trailing whitespace). There's a couple of
typos I noticed in your changes (below), but otherwise looks good.
