[PATCH 2/2] xfs: only set extent size hint when asked

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner at redhat.com>

Currently the extent size hint is set unconditionally in
xfs_ioctl_setattr(), even when the FSX_EXTSIZE flag is not set. This
means we can set values from uninitialised stack variables. Hence
only set the extent size hint from userspace when both the mask
falg is set and the inode has the XFS_DIFLAG_EXTSIZE flag set to
indicate that we should have an extent size hint set on the inode.
