A call to listxattr() with a buffer size of 0 returns the actual
size of the buffer needed for a subsequent call. On an NFSv4.2
mount this triggers the following oops:
[ 399.768687] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

security_inode_listsecurity() (via the xattr_list_one() helper) now
decrements the remaining size even when the buffer pointer is NULL, so
in the size-query case, 'left' underflows to a huge size_t value. As a
result, nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_user() treats the NULL buffer as a real one,
leading to a NULL pointer dereference in _copy_from_pages().
security_inode_listsecurity() does not return the number of bytes
it added to the list, so the code derived it as
'size - error - left'. That is also wrong in the size-query case:
the generic_listxattr() contribution is only subtracted from 'left'
when a buffer is present. Thus, the query result comes up short by
exactly that contribution (e.g., "system.nfs4_acl" on a mount with
ACL support), and a caller that allocates the returned size gets
-ERANGE on the subsequent call.
Declare 'left' as ssize_t, use a scratch copy to measure security
hook consumption, and only decrement 'left' if a buffer is present.
