Misono Tomohiro bdfd667883 virtiofsd: Fix xattr operations
Current virtiofsd has problems about xattr operations and
they does not work properly for directory/symlink/special file.

The fundamental cause is that virtiofsd uses openat() + f...xattr()
systemcalls for xattr operation but we should not open symlink/special
file in the daemon. Therefore the function is restricted.

Fix this problem by:
 1. during setup of each thread, call unshare(CLONE_FS)
 2. in xattr operations (i.e. lo_getxattr), if inode is not a regular
    file or directory, use fchdir(proc_loot_fd) + ...xattr() +
    fchdir(root.fd) instead of openat() + f...xattr()

    (Note: for a regular file/directory openat() + f...xattr()
     is still used for performance reason)

With this patch, xfstests generic/062 passes on virtiofs.

This fix is suggested by Miklos Szeredi and Stefan Hajnoczi.
