ntfs: return -ERANGE for undersized xattr buffer

Browse source

When the value buffer passed to getxattr(2) for system.dos_attrib,
system.ntfs_attrib or system.ntfs_attrib_be is smaller than the
attribute value, ntfs_getxattr() returns -ENODATA, which tells
userspace the attribute does not exist. The xattr API expects
-ERANGE in this case, and ntfs_get_ea() in the same file already
returns -ERANGE for regular EAs.
