Will name be pointing to a freed string in second iteration of loop.

Here we assign name and at the beginning of second iteration we free 
newname.

Also I am not sure why do we do this assignment only if handler is NULL.

BTW, I set cap_sys_admin on a file outside usernamespace and then launched
user namespace (mapping 1000 to 0). And then tried to do getcap on file
and I am not seeing security.capability set by host. Not sure what am I 
doing wrong. getxattr() seems to return -ENODATA. Still debugging it.

Also, have we resovled the question of stacked filesystem like overlayfs.
There we are switching creds to mounter's creds when doing operations on
underlying filesystem. I am concenrned does that mean, we will get and
return security.capability to caller in usernamespace instead of
security.capability@uid=1000.
