Subject: RE: [PATCH] fs: don't call posix_acl_listxattr in generic_listxattr

Ok, filed BZ for it, will see:

I'd say not. I've been working through xfstests failures on NFS and didn't realize that this was a regression, and posted this fstests patch
recently:

    https://lore.kernel.org/fstests/20230830-fixes-v4-1-88d7b8572aa3@kernel.org/

It would be nice if getxattr were also fixed here.

Cheers,
Jeff
