Amir Goldstein 1c8aa83303 fs: move permission hook out of do_iter_write()
In many of the vfs helpers, the rw_verity_area() checks are called before
taking sb_start_write(), making them "start-write-safe".
do_iter_write() is an exception to this rule.

do_iter_write() has two callers - vfs_iter_write() and vfs_writev().
Move rw_verify_area() and other checks from do_iter_write() out to
its callers to make them "start-write-safe".

Move also the fsnotify_modify() hook to align with similar pattern
used in vfs_write() and other vfs helpers.

This is needed for fanotify "pre content" events.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
