Patches pushed to: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse.git for-next I did just one modification to "fuse: Fail all requests with invalid uids or gids": instead of zeroing out the context for the nofail case, continue to use the "_munged" variants. I don't think this hurts and is better for backward compatibility (I guess the only relevant use would be for debugging output, but we don't want to regress even for that if not necessary). Thanks, Miklos
