Attaching a merge patch to see what Jenkins says.
We have nightly build running testcases:
https://builds.apache.org/job/Hadoop-Hdfs-HDFS-2006-nightly/
There are no failures related to this feature. The one failure I have seen is
from KMS. Even in my local jenkins also I did not see any test failures. Lets
with merge what will be the jenkins results.

> It would be nice if HDFS provides a feature to store extended attributes for
> files, similar to the one described here:
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_file_attributes.
> The challenge is that it has to be done in such a way that a site not using
> this feature does not waste precious memory resources in the namenode.
