[PATCH v10 3/5] overlayfs: add __get xattr method

[Mark Salyzyn]

Because of the overlayfs getxattr recursion, the incoming inode fails
to update the selinux sid resulting in avc denials being reported
against a target context of u:object_r:unlabeled:s0.

Solution is to add a _get xattr method that calls the __vfs_getxattr
handler so that the context can be read in, rather than being denied
with an -EACCES when vfs_getxattr handler is called.
