[PATCH bpf-next 1/4] kernfs: Add __kernfs_xattr_get for RCU protected access

[Song Liu <song@kernel.org>]

Existing kernfs_xattr_get() locks iattr_mutex, so it cannot be used in
RCU critical sections. Introduce __kernfs_xattr_get(), which reads xattr
under RCU read lock. This can be used by BPF programs to access cgroupfs
xattrs.
