[PATCH v2 1/3] fs: add ksys_lsetxattr() wrapper

[Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>]

Similarly to commit 03450e271a16 ("fs: add ksys_fchmod() and do_fchmodat()
helpers and ksys_chmod() wrapper; remove in-kernel calls to syscall"), this
patch introduces the ksys_lsetxattr() helper to avoid in-kernel calls to
the sys_lsetxattr() syscall.
