xfs: ignore leaf attr ichdr.count in verifier during log replay
When we create a new attribute, we first create a shortform attribute, and try to fit the new attribute into it. If that fails, we copy the (empty) attribute into a leaf attribute, and do the copy again. Thus there can be a transient state where we have an empty leaf attribute. If we encounter this during log replay, the verifier will fail. So add a test to ignore this part of the leaf attr verification during log replay. Thanks as usual to dchinner for spotting the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
