Adding an extended attribute to a symbolic link can force that link to an remote extent. xfs_inactive() incorrectly assumes that any symbolic link small enough to be in the inode core is incore, resulting in the remote extent to not be removed. xfs_ifree() will assert on presence of this leaked remote extent.
