ext4: use XATTR_CREATE in ext4_initxattrs()
I hit ENOSPC error when creating new file in a newly created ext4 with ea_inode feature enabled, if selinux is enabled and ext4 is mounted without any selinux context. e.g. mkfs -t ext4 -O ea_inode -F /dev/sda5 mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/ext4 touch /mnt/ext4/testfile # got ENOSPC here It turns out that we run out of journal credits in ext4_xattr_set_handle() when creating new selinux label for the newly created inode. This is because that in __ext4_new_inode() we use __ext4_xattr_set_credits() to calculate the reserved credits for new xattr, with the 'is_create' argument being true, which implies less credits in the ea_inode case. But we calculate the required credits in ext4_xattr_set_handle() with 'is_create' being false, which means we need more credits if ea_inode feature is enabled. So we don't have enough credits and error out with ENOSPC. Fix it by simply calling ext4_xattr_set_handle() with XATTR_CREATE flag in ext4_initxattrs(), so we end up with requiring less credits than reserved. The semantic of XATTR_CREATE is "Perform a pure create, which fails if the named attribute exists already." (from setxattr(2)), which is fine in this case, because we only call ext4_initxattrs() on newly created inode.
