Hi Ronnie,

Probably better to send this (and any followups) to the fstests
list... :)

'the "user." xattr namespace.'

"user namespace" is an overloaded term.

Why? And it doesn't get cleaned up on test exit, either.

I don't see anything cifs specific in this test.

And why just test this one specific thing you found a bug in? Why
not just copy all of generic/097 and chop out all the non-"user."
xattr namespace bits so you exercise all the different xattr
operations?

Cheers,
