Robert P. J. Day 206506ccf0 tmpfs: expand "help" to explain value of TMPFS_POSIX_ACL
Expand the fs/Kconfig "help" info to clarify why it's a bad idea to
deselect the TMPFS_POSIX_ACL config variable.

bool "Virtual memory file system support (former shm fs)"

help
Tmpfs is a file system which keeps all files in virtual memory.
Everything in tmpfs is temporary in the sense that no files will be
created on your hard drive. The files live in memory and swap
space. If you unmount a tmpfs instance, everything stored therein is
lost.
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/tmpfs.txt> for details.
config TMPFS_POSIX_ACL

depends on TMPFS
select TMPFS_XATTR
select GENERIC_ACL
help
POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support additional access rights
for users and groups beyond the standard owner/group/world scheme,
and this option selects support for ACLs specifically for tmpfs
filesystems.
If you've selected TMPFS, it's possible that you'll also need
this option as there are a number of Linux distros that require
POSIX ACL support under /dev for certain features to work properly.
For example, some distros need this feature for ALSA-related /dev
files for sound to work properly. In short, if you're not sure,
say Y.
To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for
Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.
config TMPFS_XATTR
bool "Tmpfs extended attributes"
depends on TMPFS
default n
help
Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
<http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details).
Currently this enables support for the trusted.* and
security.* namespaces.
You need this for POSIX ACL support on tmpfs.
If unsure, say N.
