ocfs2: Wrap calculation of name+value pair size.
An ocfs2 xattr entry stores the text name and value as a pair in the
storage area. Obviously names and values can be variable-sized. If a
value is too large for the entry storage, a tree root is stored instead.
The name+value pair is also padded.
Because of this, there are a million places in the code that do:
if (needs_external_tree(value_size)
namevalue_size = pad(name_size) + tree_root_size;
else
namevalue_size = pad(name_size) + pad(value_size);
Let's create some convenience functions to make the code more readable.
There are three forms. The first takes the raw sizes. The second takes
an ocfs2_xattr_info structure. The third takes an existing
ocfs2_xattr_entry.
