- Fix an oops in AFS that can be triggered by accessing one of the
afs.yfs.* xattrs against an OpenAFS server - for instance by commands
like "cp -a"[1], "rsync -X" or getfattr[2]. These try and copy all of
the xattrs.
cp and rsync should pay attention to the list in /etc/xattr.conf, but
cp doesn't on Ubuntu and rsync doesn't seem to on Ubuntu or Fedora.
xattr.conf has been modified upstream[3], and a new version has just
been cut that includes it. I've logged a bug against rsync for the
problem there[4].
- Stop listing "afs.*" xattrs[5][6][7], but particularly ACL ones[8] so
that they don't confuse cp and rsync.
This removes them from the list returned by listxattr(), but they're
still available to get/set.
