Looks like that, I've checked the fgetxattr01.c test and we only skip
fat and vfat when the test is executed, all the other filesystems do
support extended attributes. Disabling fat and vfat does not seem to
speed up the test at all, I guess that the mkfs + mount is fast enough
so that the difference is not measureable.
