inode_setattr hook
==================
* Reiserfs uses private directories and files for storing xattrs.
It should set ATTR_FORCE when changing attributes on these
files and directories with notify_change(). This may save us
from constructing temporary struct path objects there.
* AppArmor should check for ATTR_FORCE in its inode_setattr hook,
and should not log or deny ATTR_FORCE setattrs. SELinux does
that already as well. (For private inodes, the security_*
functions already skip the lsm hooks though, so this may be
unnecessary.)
