NAK.

You can't just deal with the access label, nor can you assume that there
is exactly one. Don't use secids. Secids are a performance problem for
Smack and any LSM that uses blobs directly. I don't see anything in the
code here that involves secids. Why comment on them here?

Who is going to call this? How are is the caller going to know all the xattr
names that matter?

Does this mean that without LSM help no xattrs ever get copied?
