Right now this code only runs on Linux (and Darwin after this series).
On Linux it's always defined,
but I'd rather this code give an error when somebody tries to port it
to a new OS than have it
silently use an incorrect value. The ` !defined(XATTR_SIZE_MAX)` is
just there in case Apple ever
decides to define it in their headers. I can remove that part if you
would prefer.
