As per the earlier discussion of extended attributes for security modules, this handler uses a "security." prefix and allows for per-module attribute names. Security checking for userspace access to these attributes can be performed by the security module using the LSM hooks in fs/xattr.c, and the security module is free to internally use the inode operations without restriction for managing its security labels. Unlike the trusted namespace, these labels are used internally for access control purposes by the security modules, and controls over userspace access to them require finer granularity than capable() supports. Please apply, or let me know if any changes are needed. Thanks.
