You bet, and thanks for the reviews!

There are a few basic tests here:

https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/liburing/log/?h=xattr

as well, but more of a sanity kind of checking, would be great if tests
were added to the VFS suite as well.

With the last few kinks ironed out, I hope to queue the next version
posted for 5.17.
