ext4: fix xattr deadlock ext4_xattr_set_handle() eventually ends up calling ext4_mark_inode_dirty() which tries to expand the inode by shifting the EAs. This leads to the xattr_sem being downed again and leading to a deadlock. This patch makes sure that if ext4_xattr_set_handle() is in the call-chain, ext4_mark_inode_dirty() will not expand the inode.
