2006-02-03configfs: Add permission and ownership to configfs objects.Joel Becker
configfs always made item and attribute ownership root.root and permissions based on a umask of 022. Add ->setattr() to allow chown(2)/chmod(2), and persist the changes for the lifetime of the items and attributes.

This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different. Modified-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> (finished the conversion) Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
