sysfs: Do not return POSIX ACL xattrs via listxattr
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit 786534b introduced a regression that caused listxattr to
return the POSIX ACL attribute names even though sysfs doesn't support
POSIX ACLs.  This happens because simple_xattr_list checks for NULL
i_acl / i_default_acl, but inode_init_always initializes those fields
to ACL_NOT_CACHED ((void *)-1).  For example:
    $ getfattr -m- -d /sys
    /sys: system.posix_acl_access: Operation not supported
    /sys: system.posix_acl_default: Operation not supported
Fix this in simple_xattr_list by checking if the filesystem supports POSIX ACLs.

Fixes: 786534b ("tmpfs: listxattr should include POSIX ACL xattrs")
