// NeedsUserXAttr returns whether overlayfs should be mounted with the "userxattr" mount option.
//
// The "userxattr" option is needed for mounting overlayfs inside a user namespace with kernel >= 5.11.
//
// The "userxattr" option is NOT needed for the initial user namespace (aka "the host").
//
// Also, Ubuntu (since circa 2015) and Debian (since 10) with kernel < 5.11 can mount
// the overlayfs in a user namespace without the "userxattr" option.
//
// The corresponding kernel commit: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/2d2f2d7322ff43e0fe92bf8cccdc0b09449bf2e1
// > ovl: user xattr
// >
// > Optionally allow using "user.overlay." namespace instead of "trusted.overlay."
// > ...
// > Disable redirect_dir and metacopy options, because these would allow privilege escalation through direct manipulation of the
// > "user.overlay.redirect" or "user.overlay.metacopy" xattrs.
// > ...
//
// The "userxattr" support is not exposed in "/sys/module/overlay/parameters".
