When 'struct lov_user_md' is passed in via setxattr, it comes with
a size.  If thatt size is too small, some function that check exactly
what version is present might access beyond the end of allocation
memory, which can have undesirable effects, such as triggering
a KASAN warning (and possibly worse).

So check that the size is sane before looking inside the structure
at all.
