Don't recheck it since xattr_permission() already checks CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.
Just follow 5d3ce4f70172 ("f2fs: avoid duplicated permission check for "trusted." xattrs")
Reported-by: Hongyu Jin <hongyu.jin@unisoc.com> [ Gao Xiang: since it could cause some complex Android overlay permission issue as well on android-5.4+, so it'd be better to backport to 5.4+ rather than pure cleanup on mainline. ] Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 5.4+ Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@redhat.com> --- related commit: https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/kernel/common/+/1121623/6/fs/xattr.c#b284
