xfs: use setattr_copy to set vfs inode attributes

Browse source

commit e014f37db1 upsream.

Filipe Manana pointed out that XFS' behavior w.r.t. setuid/setgid
revocation isn't consistent with btrfs[1] or ext4.  Those two
filesystems use the VFS function setattr_copy to convey certain
attributes from struct iattr into the VFS inode structure.

Andrey Zhadchenko reported[2] that XFS uses the wrong user namespace to
decide if it should clear setgid and setuid on a file attribute update.
This is a second symptom of the problem that Filipe noticed.

XFS, on the other hand, open-codes setattr_copy in xfs_setattr_mode,
xfs_setattr_nonsize, and xfs_setattr_time.  Regrettably, setattr_copy is
/not/ a simple copy function; it contains additional logic to clear the
setgid bit when setting the mode, and XFS' version no longer matches.

The VFS implements its own setuid/setgid stripping logic, which
establishes consistent behavior.  It's a tad unfortunate that it's
scattered across notify_change, should_remove_suid, and setattr_copy but
XFS should really follow the Linux VFS.  Adapt XFS to use the VFS
functions and get rid of the old functions.
