Since the addition of file capabilities every write needs to read xattrs to
check if we have any capabilities to clear. In Linux 3.0 Andi Kleen added
a flag to cache the fact that we do not have any attributes on an inode.
Make sure to already mark a file as not having any attributes when reading
it from disk in case it doesn't even have an attribute fork. Based on an
earlier patch from Andi Kleen.
