[PATCH 1/2] fs: touch up predicts in inode_permission()

[Mateusz Guzik <mjguzik@gmail.com>]

The routine only encounters errors when people try to access things they
can't, which is a negligible amount of calls.

The only questionable bit might be the pre-existing predict around
MAY_WRITE. Currently the routine is predominantly used for MAY_EXEC, so
this makes some sense.

I verified this straightens out the asm.
