Hello, Li.

Sorry about the delay.  Was on vacation.

I much prefer this version but would prefer to deal with this in the
next merge window as we're already on rc6.  On a cursory look...

* I'm not sure kmem_ is a good prefix.  It sucks that xattr values are
  stored in kmem w/o size limit and we probably want to improve on
  both fronts in the future.  Wouldn't it be better to name them
  simple_*() and put them in fs/libfs.c?

* I don't think we want CONFIG option for cgroupfs xattr.  Let's just
  add a mount option.

Thanks.
