The xattr scrubber doesn't check for undefined flags in shortform attr
entries. Therefore, define a mask XFS_ATTR_ONDISK_MASK that has all
possible XFS_ATTR_* flags in it, and use that to check for unknown bits
in xchk_xattr_actor.
Refactor the check in the dabtree scanner function to use the new mask
as well. The redundant checks need to be in place because the dabtree
check examines the hash mappings and therefore needs to decode the attr
leaf entries to compute the namehash. This happens before the walk of
the xattr entries themselves.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
