$LXDEV xattr is for storing block/char device's major and minor number. Change guard which excludes storing $LXDEV xattr to explicitly filter everything except block and char device. Current guard is opposite, which is currently correct but is less-safe. This change is required for adding support for creating WSL-style symlinks as symlinks also do not use device's major and minor numbers.
