Thanks for sending a fix!

I know that you don't have an eCryptfs setup to test with but I'm at a
loss about how to test this from the userns/fscaps side of things. Do
you have a sequence of unshare/setcap/getcap commands that I can run on
a file inside of an eCryptfs mount to verify that the bug exists after
7c03e2cda4a5 and then again to verify that this patch fixes the bug?
