Subject[patch 3/4] fat: dont call notify_change
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

The FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl() calls notify_change() to change
the file mode before changing the inode attributes. Replace with
explicit calls to security_inode_setattr(), fat_setattr() and
fsnotify_change().

This is equivalent to the original. The reason it is needed, is that
later in the series we move the immutable check into notify_change().
That would break the FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl, as it needs to
perform the mode change regardless of the immutability of the file.

[Fix error if fat is built as a module. Thanks to OGAWA Hirofumi for
noticing.]
