[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 004/210] ovl: allow zero size xattr

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.19.8-ckt14 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 97daf8b97ad6f913a34c82515be64dc9ac08d63e upstream.

When ovl_copy_xattr() encountered a zero size xattr no more xattrs were
copied and the function returned success.  This is clearly not the desired
behavior.
