They only allow you to set user.*, trusted.* and security.* attributs,
because the only get called for it.  For osx.* attributes the osx
handler gets called, and passed the name minus the osx prefix, which
is why the above check will catch it.

Using the handlers for set and get and not using them for remove is a
bad design, because it uses different levels of abstraction for
related operations.  I'm also increasingly of the opnion that we
should not allow the non-handler version, and that we should not permit
filesystems to create their own namespaces, but that's an unrelated
discussion.

I've not done the full merge, but below is an updated patch to make
sure hfsplus uses the handlers for the remove case, and making sure
the adding/striping of the prefix for the osv handlers is more
transparent:
