Subject: e2fsprogs: mke2fs -d: copy the Extended Attributes

Hi Ted,

The "mke2fs -d" doesn't copy the file's extended attributes into the
device currently, I'd like to make it work and submit a patch for it
if it is acceptable by e2fsprogs. Maybe we can add a "[-x xattr]"
option for "mke2fs -d" to make it copy the extended attributes.

What's your opinion, please ?
