commit 1c14b97fba52560ee4812b73288b3d6ca672f9a5
Author: Achilles Gaikwad <agaikwad@redhat.com>
Date: Thu Feb 6 10:09:38 2020 +0530
man: add examples to setfattr.1
The current man page for setfattr does not state that the user needs to
add the prefix "user." With the help of examples we demonstrate that the
user needs to add a namespace as prefix.
