[PATCH 28/32] xfs: don't remove the attr fork when parent pointers are enabled

From: Allison Henderson <allison.henderson@oracle.com>

When an inode is removed, it may also cause the attribute fork to be
removed if it is the last attribute. This transaction gets flushed to
the log, but if the system goes down before we could inactivate the symlink,
the log recovery tries to inactivate this inode (since it is on the unlinked
list) but the verifier trips over the remote value and leaks it.

Hence we ended up with a file in this odd state on a "clean" mount. The
"obvious" fix is to prohibit erasure of the attr fork to avoid tripping
over the verifiers when pptrs are enabled.
