Instead of a new arg to create_new_entry(), this could check
args.opcode != FUSE_LINK.

This doesn't seem right.  How would the server know if this is arg is missing?

I think if FUSE_SECURITY_CTX was negotiated, then the secctx header
will always need to be added to the MK* requests.

I don't see why the API changes are split between the first and the
second patch in the series.   Please either move all API changes to
1/2 or fold 1/2 into this patch.

The name of this struct is very confusing due to similarity with
fuse_secctx.  How about "fuse_secctx_header"?

Also I'd add the total length of the security context (including the
header), otherwise further args would need to parse the security
context completely to find the position of the next arg.   The
counterexample is null-terminated names; while parsing these is pretty
trivial,  in hindsight it would probably have been better to add a
header to names as well.

Thanks,
Miklos
