[PATCH] selinux: disable setxattr on mountpoint labeled filesystems
This patch disables the setting of SELinux xattrs on files created in filesystems labeled via mountpoint labeling (mounted with the context= option). selinux_inode_setxattr already prevents explicit setxattr from userspace on such filesystems, so this provides consistent behavior for file creation.
