This means ext4 mandatory if you want to use it, and this (usually)

Hi,
is it possible to go from an ext4-filesystem with no extended file
attributes to one with extended file attributes without reformatting
the disk or other very risky low level things just by adding this
feature to the kenrel (?) ?
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
Best regards,
