Hi,

There are situation when HFS+ volume had been created without
AttributesFile. Such situation can take place because of using
old mkfs.hfs utility or creation HFS+ volume without taking
in mind necessity to use xattrs. For example, Mac OS X 10.4
(Tiger) doesn't create AttributesFile during mkfs phase. Also
it is a very frequent situation for the case of users that
created HFS+ volumes under Linux. As a result, xattrs and
POSIX ACLs on HFS+ volume are unavailable for such users.

This patch set implements functionality of AttributesFile
creation on HFS+ volume in the case of this metadata file
absence during operation of xattr creation.

With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
