This actually reverts 86e92eeeb2 ("bcachefs: Annotate struct bch_xattr
with __counted_by()").
After the x_name, there is a value. According to the disscussion[1],
__counted_by assumes that the flexible array member contains exactly
the amount of elements that are specified. Now there are users came across
a false positive detection of an out of bounds write caused by
the __counted_by here[2], so revert that.

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.
