vfs_streams_xattr can hold larger streams

-----------------------------------------
40+
41+
On Linux the size of a single extended attribute is limited to 65536
42+
bytes of size. For some file systems, this is also the overall limit
43+
of space for xattrs, but for example xfs can hold more than that 64k
44+
of extended xattrs, although the individual xattr is still limited to
45+
64k. Setting
46+
47+
streams_xattr:max xattrs per stream = 1
48+
49+
to a higher value than 1 will allow Samba to shard the stream to more
50+
than one xattr. It has an artificial limit of 16 for a maximum stream
51+
length of 1MB.
