In commit bb0d2b8ad296 ("ovl: fix sgid on directory"), mode of newly created files & dirs over whiteout was updated to pickup sgid bit. But it used stat->mode directly, which could not be the correct mode, because stat->mode could be tailored against umask. This can be demonstrated by the following script: umask 022 mkdir -p lower/dir upper work mnt chown test:test lower/dir chmod 2775 lower/dir touch lower/dir/testdir touch lower/dir/testfile mount -t overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work none mnt rm -f mnt/dir/testdir mkdir mnt/dir/testdir rm -f mnt/dir/testfile touch mnt/dir/testfile touch mnt/dir/newfile ls -l mnt/dir -rw-r--r--. 1 root test 0 Aug 25 15:45 newfile drwxrwsrwx. 2 root test 6 Aug 25 15:45 testdir -rw-rw-rw-. 1 root test 0 Aug 25 15:45 testfile testdir and testfile are created over whiteout, the modes contain write permission for group and other, but they shouldn't, like 'newfile'. Fix it by resetting mode against upperdir inode using inode_init_owner().
