Why are you doing this here?  If we get here it means that
xattr_is_userns_supported() returned < 0, meaning name is
not userns-supported.  So xattr_rewrite_userns_xattr() will
just return name.  Am I missing something?

xattr_is_userns_support(name, false) does a _full string match_ rather than a prefix match and will only return >= 0 for security.capability. This case handles the hosts's security.capability which 'shines through' for read and needs to be listed. Only in this case we set newname=name.

In the else branch we handle security.capability@uid=1000 and rewrite that to security.capability for root mapping to uid=1000.

+               if (newname && !xattr_list_contains(nlist, d_off, newname)) {
Now here, if name was recalculated to @newname, and @newname is
found in the nlist, that should raise an error right?  Something
fishy is going on?

If security.capability is set on a file but the container doesn't have security.capability@uid=1000, we still need to list the former here. However, we end up with duplicates if security.capability is there and security.capability@uid=1000 is also there and root is mapped to uid=1000. Both would be shown as security.capability inside the container. In this case we need to filter.

I think the code is correct. More problematic is a memory leak in the error case. Will fix that.

d_off needs to be set to -ERANGE here.

Fixed.
