From: Gao Xiang <gaoxiang25 at huawei.com>

commit 62dc45979f3f8cb0ea67302a93bff686f0c46c5a upstream.

In real scenario, there could be several threads accessing xattrs
of the same xattr-uninitialized inode, and init_inode_xattrs()
almost at the same time.

That's actually an unexpected behavior, this patch closes the race.
