So IMO there is some major badness here in the form of copying all of
those functions out of fs/namei.c.  I think we need to discuss
case-by-case whether using the functions is appropriate (and hence
they should be made non-static in fs/namei.c), or whether the intended
goal should be met some other way.  For instance:

Isn't may_create already done at the top of vfs_mknod() and vfs_create()?

likewise...

likewise...  (except in the case of fifo/sock, devcgroup should not be
consulted as I'm not sure it'll handle that properly - have you tested
tis with the device cgroup enabled?)
