ovl: use a minimal buffer in ovl_copy_xattr
Rather than always allocating the high-order XATTR_SIZE_MAX buffer which is costly and prone to failure, only allocate what is needed and realloc if necessary. Fixes https://github.com/coreos/bugs/issues/489 Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
