Thanks!

Dave,

I am not seeing any progress with the remaining VFS issues,
so rather not hold up fixing this "big problem" on future changes.

Do the two opinions from Christian and Christoph help you
ease your mind about the concerns that you raised?

Anyway, I now have these two patches queued and tests so
I can send them along in the same batch, whenever that is:

e014f37db xfs: use setattr_copy to set vfs inode attributes
01ea173e1 xfs: fix up non-directory creation in SGID directories

The setattr_copy patch is also part of Leah's candidates for 5.15,
so if you approve, I will include both patches above in my
next posting (after part 3) to align with Leah's 5.15 candidates.

Thanks,
Amir.
