Description of problem: Each client registers a list of xattrs that it is interested in receiving invalidations for. Currently it is not possible to unregister any xattr from the watch list. Along with the xattrs also store the list of clients that are interested in notifications, so that the notification can be sent to the clients that have registered.

Until then there is no unregister of xattrs Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Could you add a description for a use-case why clients would be interested in not receiving events for xattrs anymore?
