tmpfs wants to support limited user extended attributes, but kernfs (or cgroupfs, the only kernfs with KERNFS_ROOT_SUPPORT_USER_XATTR) already supports user extended attributes through simple xattrs: but limited by a policy (128KiB per inode) too liberal to be used on tmpfs. To allow a different limiting policy for tmpfs, without affecting the policy for kernfs, change simple_xattr_set() to return the replaced or removed xattr (if any), leaving the caller to update their accounting then free the xattr (by simple_xattr_free(), renamed from the static free_simple_xattr()).
