[RFC][PATCH 4/9] gen_init_cpio: define new CPIO format to support xattrs

From: Mimi Zohar
Date: Wed Jan 07 2015 - 15:55:52 EST


This patch defines a new CPIO method 070703 for including xattrs.
The new format extends the existing NEWC header to include the
buffer size containing the number of xattrs, the xattr(s) name,
data size, and data.
