This is great, I like how you've kept the +/- notation similar to knfsd
supported versions.

Another way to do this would be an attribute file per capability, setting it
to 0 or 1 which is more inline with sysfs usage.

I think if we do use this, we ought to leave readdir plus out of it because
there's already a mount option for it.  Readdir plus can be turned on and
off with a remount already.  The issue for me would be how to work out what
the behavior should be when we have a mount that has "nordirplus" and then
someone tries to toggle it via sysfs.

Any other thoughts?

I'll add this patch to my future postings of sysfs work.
