-From: Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>
-
-This patch adds support for a restricted user-controlled namespace on
-tmpfs filesystem used to house PaX flags. The namespace must be of the
-form user.pax.* and its value cannot exceed a size of 8 bytes.
-
-This is needed even on all Gentoo systems so that XATTR_PAX flags
-are preserved for users who might build packages using portage on
-a tmpfs system with a non-hardened kernel and then switch to a
-hardened kernel with XATTR_PAX enabled.
-
-The namespace is added to any user with Extended Attribute support
-enabled for tmpfs. Users who do not enable xattrs will not have
-the XATTR_PAX flags preserved.
