xfs: fix boundary test in xfs_attr_shortform_verify
The boundary test for the fixed-offset parts of xfs_attr_sf_entry in xfs_attr_shortform_verify is off by one, because the variable array at the end is defined as nameval[1] not nameval[]. Hence we need to subtract 1 from the calculation. This can be shown by: # touch file # setfattr -n root.a file and verifications will fail when it's written to disk. This only matters for a last attribute which has a single-byte name and no value, otherwise the combination of namelen & valuelen will push endp further out and this test won't fail.
