Richard Yao b83e3e48c9 Stop runtime pointer modifications in autotools checks
c38367c73f was meant to eliminate runtime
function pointer modifications in autotools checks because they were
prone to false negatives on kernels hardened by the PaX project.
Unfortunately, I missed the xattr_handler and super_block->s_bdi
autotools checks. Recent changes to PaX constified
xattr_handler->get/set, which lead me to discover this oversight.
