configfs: consistent attribute size

The attribute store/show code currently limits attributes at PAGE_SIZE.
This code comes from sysfs, where it still works that way.

However, PAGE_SIZE is not constant.  A 16k attribute string works on
ia64 but not on x86.  Really a subsystem shouldn't allow different
attribute sizes based on platform.

As such, limit all simple attributes to 4k.  This works on all
platforms, and is consistent with all current code.
