Adds support for generic extended attributes within the POSIX message
queues filesystem and setting them by consulting the LSM. This is
needed so that the security.selinux extended attribute can be set via
a SELinux named type transition on file inodes created within the
filesystem. It allows a selinux policy to be created for a set of
custom applications that use POSIX message queues for their IPC and
uniquely labeling them based on the application that creates the mqueue
eliminating the need for relabeling after the mqueue file is created.
The implementation is based on tmpfs/shmem and uses the newly created
simple_xattr_initxattrs() LSM callback function.
