Yes, now I've realized your approach. You are right. It's my
misunderstanding. So, comments are really necessary for describing the
goal of this check. Thank you for adding it in the last version of
reworked patch.

As far as I can judge, changing from hfsplus_removexattr() to
generic_removexattr() is made correctly.

Removing this skipping of virtual "osx." prefix means that you save it
on volume. But such action means volume corruption really. Because HFS+
volume hasn't such prefixes for xattrs in AttributesFile. Usually,
special xattrs has prefix "com.apple.*" but others haven't any prefix
and can be named as you want. So, I think that it is not correct
modification.

Ditto. This skipping is made because virtual prefix was added by user or
on listxattr phase. But we should use for searching on a volume the name
without "osx." prefix. Otherwise, how do you get
"com.apple.system.Security" xattr from volume, for example? You will
search "osx.com.apple.system.Security" that doesn't exist on HFS+
volume.
