Reading of EA's using geteas from smbclient is failing when SMB2 or above is used.

To reproduce:
- mount linux file system using user_xattr parameter
- add 'ea support = yes' to smb.conf
- remount file system and restart smbd

connect to filesystem using smbclient and -mSMB2 (or -mSMB3)
attempt to set/get EAs, ie using the following:
smb: \> setea TOP.LOG TEST abcdef
smb: \> setea TOP.LOG TEST2 abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
smb: \> geteas TOP.LOG 

Results shown are:
TEST (0) =
[0000] 61 62 63 64 65 66                                 abcdef 

TEST (0) =
[0000] 61 62 63 64 65 66                                 abcdef 

When connected via SMB1:
smb: \> geteas TOP.LOG
TEST (0) =
[0000] 61 62 63 64 65 66                                 abcdef 

TEST2 (0) =
[0000] 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68   69 6A 6B 6C 6D 6E 6F 70   abcdefgh ijklmnop
[0010] 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78   79 7A                    qrstuvwx yz

ie the EA's are _set_ correctly, but cannot be read over SMB2

Cherry-pick from master applies cleanly to 4.2.next, 4.1.next.
