Christoph was interested in seeing the updated NFS xattr handlers (following the flags API change), so I figured I'd post just the rebased patches. Other than that, this will only be of interest to folk who wish to play with the code using a current kernel. I'm still in the process of incorporating functional feedback, particularly following a discussion with Trond on using a private namespace on the server to allow simple storage of all kinds of xattrs. An updated patchset with this implemented should follow fairly soon. - James -- James Morris
