Since I don't usually do things on the "bleeding edge" of the Linux kernel, could you give me a "ballpark" idea of when a 'stable' kernel version that includes this functionality might be out?

I am working on a system that needs to be able to write to the xattr namespace "trusted", as in trusted.xyz.  I only need this support from the Linux client, as the target file is being served by a Windows server.  I have tried this using Centos (same package versions as RHEL) 6.4, and the writes all fail with the default client.  I am hoping that this has been addressed in a newer version of the CIFS client.

Is the "trusted" namespace accessible in the current Linux CIFS client?  If so, what version of which file(s) do I need to look for?

Thank you,
