We need sget_userns(..., &init_user_ns) for sysfs.  The sysfs
xattrs can travel from one mount of sysfs to another via the sysfs
backing store.

For tmpfs and any other filesystems we support mounting without
privilige that support xattrs.  We need to identify them and
see if userspace is taking advantage of the ability to set
xattrs and file caps (unlikely).  If they are we need to call
sget_userns(..., &init_user_ns) on those filesystems as well.

Possibly/Probably we should just do that for all of the interesting
filesystems to start with and then change back to an ordinary old sget
after we have done the testing and confirmed we will not be introducing
userspace regressions.
