[PATCH v2 06/10] ovl: user xattr

Miklos Szeredi mszeredi at redhat.com

Optionally allow using "user.overlay." namespace instead of
"trusted.overlay."

This is necessary for overlayfs to be able to be mounted in an unprivileged
namepsace.

Make the option explicit, since it makes the filesystem format be
incompatible.

Disable redirect_dir and metacopy options, because these would allow
privilege escalation through direct manipulation of the
"user.overlay.redirect" or "user.overlay.metacopy" xattrs.
