Linux 7.1.0 allows user.* xattrs on sockets (dc0876b9846d). Update
fsetxattr02/setxattr02 to expect success on 7.1.0+ (instead of -EPERM).

Changes since v3:
- Simplify the logic (thanks Andrea)
Changes since v2:
- Move kernel check into setup() & add helper (thanks Petr)
- Alter test description
Changes since v1:
- Fix kernel version 7.0+ -> 7.1.0+ (thanks Petr)
- Fix comments

Jan Polensky (2):
  fsetxattr02: Adapt test for kernel 7.1.0+ socket xattr support
  setxattr02: Adapt test for kernel 7.1.0+ socket xattr support
