ocfs2: Add empty bucket support in xattr.

Browse source

As Mark mentioned, it may be time-consuming when we remove the
empty xattr bucket, so this patch try to let empty bucket exist
in xattr operation. The modification includes:
1. Remove the functin of bucket and extent record deletion during
   xattr delete.
2. In xattr set:
   1) Don't clean the last entry so that if the bucket is empty,
      the hash value of the bucket is the hash value of the entry
      which is deleted last.
   2) During insert, if we meet with an empty bucket, just use the
      1st entry.
3. In binary search of xattr bucket, use the bucket hash value(which
   stored in the 1st xattr entry) to find the right place.
