owner:group but subsequent operations change owner and group using
chown and chgrp. This is because the glusterfsd(brick daemon) process
always runs as root. I don't know the exact reason why setfsuid and
setfsgid are not used although the code exist.
Amar/Pranith/Raghavendra/Vijay,
Do you know why HAVE_SET_FSID is undefined in line
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/xlators/ storage/posix/src/posix.c#L65
Its been ~10 years since its disabled in codebase, and I don't recollect why completely right now.
By checking the patch [1] which got this change, I couldn't make out much: Probably something to do with Solaris support IMO.

May be time to run a test by removing that line as we are friendly with only Linux/BSD right now.
