Hmmm. The code in XFS is not dependent on selinux, but this change would mean that testing the security xattr namespace would require a selinux enabled kernel. I agree that the default for these should be "y" and selected if selinux is enabled, but forcing us to use selinux enabled kernels (on distro's that may not support selinux) just to test the security xattr namespace is a bit of a pain.
