Subject[patch 14/14] vfs: path_permission() clean up flags
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

Currently callers of path_permission() either pass zero or
nameidata->flags as the flags argument. Passing lookup flags to
filesystems is completely unecessary, only the "intent" flags are
interesting.

More specifically nfs uses LOOKUP_ACCESS and LOOKUP_OPEN flags, while
fuse uses LOOKUP_ACCESS and LOOKUP_CHDIR flags.

So clean up path_permission() calls to just pass these flags.

In case of LOOKUP_CHDIR and LOOKUP_ACCESS the lookup routines need not
be passed these flags at all, they are only needed for the permission
checks.

Also remove the nameidata argument of may_create(). NFS doesn't need
LOOKUP_OPEN in this case, since it handles the creation checks on the
parent directory specially anyway.
