Our filesystem implemented getattrlist under Darwin 7 to return some
Volume information -- if the node was not the root we just returned
ENOTSUP. Now under Darwin 8 there is getattr at the VFS level and it
looks to handle all the stuff that getattrlist used to. So is
getattrlist needed anymore? Will old userland clients be shunted
through getattr as necessary?


The VFS uses the VFS_GETATTR call for volume information, and
VNOP_GETATTR for vnode information.  The getattrlist(2) syscall
is backed by these, and the old VOP_GETATTRLIST is not used.
