Looking more closely at the problem I was mistaken. I was concerned with
the dereferenceing of the dentry in the first line of the getxattr
function but it seems that a precondition for us getting that far is
that we will always have a valid dentry at that point. I'd appreciate it
if the people whose code the patch touches can review the patch again
and either NAK with more comments or sign off on it.
