From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5924e6ec1585445f251ea92713eb15beb732622a ] The permission flags of newly created symlinks are wrongly dropped on nilfs2 with the current umask value even though symlinks should have 777 (rwxrwxrwx) permissions: $ umask 0022 $ touch file && ln -s file symlink; ls -l file symlink -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jun 23 16:29 file lrwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 4 Jun 23 16:29 symlink -> file This fixes the bug by inserting a missing check that excludes symlinks.
