From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 03fedf93593c82538b18476d8c4f0e8f8435ea70 ] When inode has no listxattr op of its own (e.g. squashfs) vfs_listxattr calls the LSM inode_listsecurity hooks to list the xattrs that LSMs will intercept in inode_getxattr hooks. When selinux LSM is installed but not initialized, it will list the security.selinux xattr in inode_listsecurity, but will not intercept it in inode_getxattr. This results in -ENODATA for a getxattr call for an xattr returned by listxattr. This situation was manifested as overlayfs failure to copy up lower files from squashfs when selinux is built-in but not initialized, because ovl_copy_xattr() iterates the lower inode xattrs by vfs_listxattr() and vfs_getxattr(). ovl_copy_xattr() skips copy up of security labels that are indentified by inode_copy_up_xattr LSM hooks, but it does that after vfs_getxattr(). Since we are not going to copy them, skip vfs_getxattr() of the security labels.
