Sorry, I'm not following.  Why is this a good cleanup?  Why should
the xattr be shown as faked v3 in this case?

A separate question below.

Why this change?  Christian (cc:d) noticed that this is a user visible change.
Without this change, if you are in a userns which has different rootid, the
EOVERFLOW tells vfs_getxattr to vall back to __vfs_getxattr() and so you can
see the v3 capability with its rootid.

With this change, you instead just get EOVERFLOW.
