Series virtiofsd: Allow using file handles instead of O_PATH FDs | expand

We only need to drop/switch our credentials for the (f)setxattr() call
alone, not for the openat() or fchdir() around it.

(Right now, this may not be that big of a problem, but with inodes being
identified by file handles instead of an O_PATH fd, we will need
open_by_handle_at() calls here, which is really fickle when it comes to
credentials being dropped.)

Is there a need to move FCHDIR_NOFAIL() call earlier too? I am assuming
this will not be impacted by file handle stuff. So we probably could
leave it in place. Easier to read.

I wanted to limit the region where the creds are dropped to an absolute 
minimum, i.e. just around (f)setxattr().  I prefer this in general, not 
just because it breaks opening file handles, and so I wanted to pull out 
not just the openat(), but the fchdir() as well.
