[ Upstream commit 1a91794ce8481a293c5ef432feb440aee1455619 ] This splits of the setup part of the function setxattr in its own dedicated function called setxattr_copy. In addition it also exposes a new function called do_setxattr for making the setxattr call. This makes it possible to call these two functions from io_uring in the processing of an xattr request.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
