+	 * (LSM xattr) namespaces to dip into the reserve block pool to allow
+	 * manipulation of these xattrs when at ENOSPC. These VFS xattr
+	 * namespaces translate to the XFS_ATTR_ROOT and XFS_ATTR_SECURE on-disk
+	 * namespaces.
+	 *
+	 * For most of these cases, these special xattrs will fit in the inode
+	 * itself and so consume no extra space or only require temporary extra
+	 * space while an overwrite is being made. Hence the use of the reserved
+	 * pool is largely to avoid the worst case reservation from preventing
+	 * the xattr from being created at ENOSPC.
