[PATCH v23 02/22] vfs: Add MAY_CREATE_FILE and MAY_CREATE_DIR permission flags

Andreas Gruenbacher
2016-06-30T13:47:41Z

Richacls distinguish between creating non-directories and directories. To
support that, add an isdir parameter to may_create(). When checking
inode_permission() for create permission, pass in an additional
MAY_CREATE_FILE or MAY_CREATE_DIR mask flag.

Add may_replace() to allow checking for delete and create access when
replacing an existing file in vfs_rename().
