Commit 7c55b78818 ("jfs: xattr: fix buffer overflow for invalid xattr")
also addresses this issue but it only fixes it for positive values, while
ea_size is an integer type and can take negative values, e.g. in case of
a corrupted filesystem. This still breaks validation and would overflow
because of implicit conversion from int to size_t in print_hex_dump().
Fix this issue by clamping the ea_size value instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
