Subject: ext4: properly align shifted xattrs when expanding inodes
From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
commit 443a8c41cd49de66a3fda45b32b9860ea0292b84 upstream.
We did not count with the padding of xattr value when computing desired
shift of xattrs in the inode when expanding i_extra_isize. As a result
we could create unaligned start of inline xattrs. Account for alignment
properly.
