If metadata are immutable, they cannot be changed. If metadata are already
set to the final value before cp and tar restore the value from the source,
those applications display an error even if the operation is legitimate
(they don't change the value).

This patch determines whether setxattr()/setattr() change metadata and, if
not, allows the operations even if metadata are immutable.

"metadata" is singular.   The first sentence would be clearer by using
the specific metadata.  What problem are you trying to solve?  It
doesn't look like you're trying to solve the problem of writing the EVM
portable signatures without an exiting HMAC.

Doesn't setxattr/setattr always change file metadata?  Please describe
the real problem.

static functions don't normally require a function comment, but in this
case it wouldn't hurt to clarify why the uid, gid, mode bits are set,
but aren't being modified.
Similarly a function comment would help with the readability of
evm_xattr_acl_change().

Yes. The problem is that tar/cp change metadata even if its value is
already correct after the file has been created. These operations
will be denied because metadata is immutable and verification
succeeds.
