jfs: fix xattr value size overflow in __jfs_setxattr

There is a potential overflow if the specified EA value size is
greater than USHRT_MAX because the size of value is limited by
the on-disk format (i.e, __le16), this issue could be reflected
via the tests below:
 # touch /jfs/testfile
 # setfattr -n user.comment -v `perl -e 'print "A"x65536'` /jfs/testfile
   setfattr: /jfs/testfile: Invalid argument

Syslog:
 ... jfs_xsetattr: xattr_size = 21, new_size = 65557

This patch add pre-checkups of EA value size against USHRT_MAX to
avoid this problem, and return -E2BIG which is consistent with the
VFS setxattr interface.  Moreover, fix the debug code to print the
correct function name.

With this fix:
 setfattr: /jfs/testfile: Argument list too long
