commit 926d1650176448d7684b991fbe1a5b1a8289e97c upstream.
As David reported [1], ENODATA returns when attempting to modify files by using EROFS as an overlayfs lower layer.
The root cause is that listxattr could return unexpected -ENODATA by mistake for inodes without xattr. That breaks listxattr return value convention and it can cause copy up failure when used with overlayfs.
Resolve by zeroing out if no xattr is found for listxattr.
