[uml-devel] Bug in hostfs

[Peter Hartshorn <peter@dimtech.com.au>]

I just started hacking in uml. First thing I did was to re-enable reporting of 
real uid and gid for hostfs files (I needed it). Then I noticed that I could 
only write to a file if it had the execute bit set (ie 0744). I narrowed this 
down to the following:

file: arch/um/fs/hostfs/host_fs.c
line: 60

original:
static int access_file(char *file, int uid, int gid, int r, int w, int x,

modified:
static in access_file(char *file, int r, int w, int x, int uid, int gid,

So, as you can see, the parameters for the function were in the wrong order.
The order was also changed in the hostfs.h file.

PS. sorry about the lack of a patch (I didn't think it was a big enough patch)
