This change is buggy. I had already posted it and self NACKed myself [1].

You can find an hopefully non-buggy version of it on my ovl-shutdown [2] branch.

As long as you are changing ovl_ioctl(), please also take the second
commit on that
branch to replace the open coded capability check with the
vfs_ioc_setflags_prepare()
generic helper.
Hi Amir,

Thanks a lot for your quick reply. :-)
I will try to read and understand the metioned patches on your ovl-shutdown branch.

Best Regards,
Xiao Yang
Thanks,
Amir.
