xattr: Stop calling {get,set,remove}xattr inode operations
All filesystems that support xattrs by now do so via xattr handlers. They all define sb->s_xattr, and their getxattr, setxattr, and removexattr inode operations use the generic inode operations. On filesystems that don't support xattrs, the xattr inode operations are all NULL, and sb->s_xattr is also NULL. This means that we can remove the getxattr, setxattr, and removexattr inode operations and directly call the generic handlers, or better, inline expand those handlers into fs/xattr.c. Filesystems that do not support xattrs on some inodes should clear the IOP_XATTR i_opflags flag in those inodes. (Right now, some filesystems have checks to disable xattrs on some inodes in the ->list, ->get, and ->set xattr handler operations instead.) The IOP_XATTR flag is automatically cleared in inodes of filesystems that don't have xattr support. In orangefs, symlinks do have a setxattr iop but no getxattr iop. Add a check for symlinks to orangefs_inode_getxattr to preserve the current, weird behavior; that check may not be necessary though.
