[PATCH] 9p: Don't use ATTR_* values from fs.h in userspace facing structs

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sat Dec 17 2011 - 10:08:09 EST


struct p9_iattr_dotl is userspace facing, but the 'valid' field is documented
as follows:

* @valid: bitfield specifying which fields are valid
* same as in struct iattr

Which means that the user has to know about kernel internal ATTR_* values.
