Subject: nouser_xattr

Hi there,

I have just spotted in my log files that nouser_xattr will be removed.

I think it should be kept in as I currently use that option to ensure
that my / partition (which is on a ssd) is mounted without user_xattr to
stop some writes to it.  If I don't specify nouser_xattr the / partition
automatically gets mounted with user_xattr. 

Will there be any other way to ensure that a partition is mounted
without user_xattr?

(I could have missed something totally obvious tho :P )

Thanks,

Brett
