When value size is <= EXT4_XATTR_MIN_LARGE_EA_SIZE(), and it doesn't fit in either inline or xattr block, a second try is made to store it in an external inode while storing the entry itself in inline area. There should also be an attempt to store the entry in xattr block. This patch adds a retry loop to do that. It also makes the caller the sole decider on whether to store a value in an external inode.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
