Since the stacking of regular file operations [1], the overlayfs edition of write_iter() is called when writing regular files. Since then, xattr lookup is needed on every write since file_remove_privs() is called from ovl_write_iter(), which would become the performance bottleneck when writing small chunks of data. In my test case, file_remove_privs() would consume ~15% CPU when running fstime of unixbench (the workload is repeadly writing 1 KB to the same file) [2]. Inherit the SB_NOSEC flag from upperdir. Since then xattr lookup would be done only once on the first write. Unixbench fstime gets a ~20% performance gain with this patch.
