After introducing 2f26f58df041 ("ocfs2: annotate flexible array members
with __counted_by_le()"), syzbot has reported the following issue:
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in fs/ocfs2/xattr.c:1955:3
index 2 is out of range for type 'struct ocfs2_xattr_entry[]
__counted_by(xh_count)' (aka 'struct ocfs2_xattr_entry[]')
...
Call Trace:
<TASK>
dump_stack_lvl+0x189/0x250 lib/dump_stack.c:120
ubsan_epilogue+0xa/0x40 lib/ubsan.c:233
__ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0xe9/0xf0 lib/ubsan.c:455
ocfs2_xa_remove_entry+0x36d/0x3e0 fs/ocfs2/xattr.c:1955
...
To address this issue, 'xh_entries[]' member removal should be performed
before actually changing 'xh_count', thus making sure that all array
accesses matches the boundary checks performed by UBSAN.
