The patch titled r-o-bind-mounts: elevate writer count for chown and friends has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is r-o-bind-mounts-elevate-writer-count-for-chown-and-friends.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: r-o-bind-mounts: elevate writer count for chown and friends From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx> chown/chmod,etc... don't call permission in the same way that the normal "open for write" calls do. They still write to the filesystem, so bump the write count during these operations.
