Subject[PATCH 08/25] elevate writer count for chown and friends
From
Date

chown/chmod,etc... don't call permission in the same way
that the normal "open for write" calls do. They still
write to the filesystem, so bump the write count during
these operations.

This conflicts with the current (~2.6.23-rc7) audit
git tree in -mm. wiggle'ing the patch merges it.
