When filtering xattr list for reading, presence of trusted xattr
results in a security audit log. However, if there is other content
no errno will be set, and if there isn't, the errno will be -ENODATA
and not -EPERM as is usually associated with a lack of capability.
The check does not block the request to list the xattrs present.
Switch to has_capability_noaudit to reflect a more appropriate check.

Thanks for the backport, this one worked!
I spoke too soon:
ERROR: "has_capability_noaudit" [fs/overlayfs/overlay.ko] undefined!
That function isn't exported for modules :(
But, if this really is needed, and it fixes the issue, I'll go export
that symbol with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() to fix the problem. Any
objections?
thanks,

Ok, you just answered my question in cross-emails. Yes,
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() (my option 2).
Thanks
