reiserfs: use generic xattr handlers

Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs
xattrs to the generic xattr interface.

This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the
generic struct xattr_handler.

However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing
xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without
needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end.

Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path.
Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to
                represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.
