ext4: don't fail GETFSUUID when the caller provides a long buffer
If userspace provides a longer UUID buffer than is required, we
shouldn't fail the call with EINVAL -- rather, we can fill the caller's
buffer with the bytes we /can/ fill, and update the length field to
reflect what we copied. This doesn't break the UAPI since we're
enabling a case that currently fails, and so far Ted hasn't released a
version of e2fsprogs that uses the new ext4 ioctl.
