[PATCH 61/73] union-mount: Make various syscalls aware (link, chmod,chown, utimes & setxattr) [ver #2]

From: David Howells
Date: Tue Feb 21 2012 - 13:19:29 EST


Make the link, chmod, chown, utimes and setxattr syscalls and their variants
aware of unionmounts by passing LOOKUP_COPY_UP to pathwalk.

This has the downside that the copyup will occur even if permission is later
denied to perform the operation.
