Whoa.  ;)  Where'd this come from?  At first glance it seems crazy to only
check XFS_ATTR_ROOT but then I stated digging a little...

This is essentially akin to other code we still have in the local
case,

        /* Only check values for root security attributes */
        if (entry->flags & XFS_ATTR_ROOT) {
                if (valuecheck(mp, (char *)&local->nameval[0], NULL,
                                local->namelen, be16_to_cpu(local->valuelen))) {
                        do_warn(
        _("bad security value for attribute entry %d in attr block %u, inode %" PRIu64 "\n"),
                                i, da_bno, ino);
                        return -1;
                }
        }

soooo this patch essentially allows valuecheck on !XFS_ATTR_ROOT attributes,
but valuecheck says:

 * Calls will be made to xfs_mac_valid or xfs_acl_valid routines if the
 * security attributes exist. They will be cleared if invalid.
 * No other values will be checked. 

So, um, what's actually getting fixed?  Ah, ok:

this also allows us to simply try to /get/ the remote attribute:

rmtval_get()

and if that fails:

                do_warn(
        _("remote attribute get failed for entry %d, inode %" PRIu64 "\n"),
                        i, ino);
                goto bad_free_out;

we zap it.

So ... uh...

I think you want to /move/ the XFS_ATTR_ROOT check before the call to valuecheck(),
rather than removing it entirely.

Ok, at this rate I'll have all 11 patches done by June.
