Christoph Hellwig 431547b3c4 sanitize xattr handler prototypes
Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods.  This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute.  With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

Steven Whitehouse 479c427dd6 GFS2: Clean up ACLs
To prepare for support for caching of ACLs, this cleans up the GFS2
ACL support by pushing the xattr code back into xattr.c and changing
the acl_get function into one which only returns ACLs so that we
can drop the caching function into it shortly.

Steven Whitehouse 307cf6e63c GFS2: Rename eattr.[ch] as xattr.[ch]
Use the more conventional name for the extended attribute
support code. Update all the places which care.
