Looks good, merged into "testing".

I did make a slight change to the format -- instead of putting the hex
value in parenthesis, I separated the two fields with a /, which I think
should make things easier for scripts to parse.

You should be able to do something like this to get at the hex value for
testing:

    $ getfattr -n ceph.caps foo | cut -d / -f2

Let me know if you see issues with that and we can revisit the format.

Thanks!
