/*
* In order to implement EA/ACLs in a clean, backwards compatible manner,
* they are implemented as files in a "private" directory.
* Each EA is in it's own file, with the directory layout like so (/ is assumed
* to be relative to fs root). Inside the /.reiserfs_priv/xattrs directory,
* directories named using the capital-hex form of the objectid and
* generation number are used. Inside each directory are individual files
* named with the name of the extended attribute.
*
* So, for objectid 12648430, we could have:
* /.reiserfs_priv/xattrs/C0FFEE.0/system.posix_acl_access
* /.reiserfs_priv/xattrs/C0FFEE.0/system.posix_acl_default
* /.reiserfs_priv/xattrs/C0FFEE.0/user.Content-Type
* .. or similar.
*
* The file contents are the text of the EA. The size is known based on the
* stat data describing the file.
*
* In the case of system.posix_acl_access and system.posix_acl_default, since
* these are special cases for filesystem ACLs, they are interpreted by the
* kernel, in addition, they are negatively and positively cached and attached
* to the inode so that unnecessary lookups are avoided.
