Christian Brauner 7fd2ca4a86 nfsd: use vfs setgid helper 
commit 2d8ae8c417 upstream.

We've aligned setgid behavior over multiple kernel releases. The details
can be found in commit cf619f8919 ("Merge tag 'fs.ovl.setgid.v6.2' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping") and
commit 426b4ca2d6 ("Merge tag 'fs.setgid.v6.0' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux").
Consistent setgid stripping behavior is now encapsulated in the
setattr_should_drop_sgid() helper which is used by all filesystems that
strip setgid bits outside of vfs proper. Usually ATTR_KILL_SGID is
raised in e.g., chown_common() and is subject to the
setattr_should_drop_sgid() check to determine whether the setgid bit can
be retained. Since nfsd is raising ATTR_KILL_SGID unconditionally it
will cause notify_change() to strip it even if the caller had the
necessary privileges to retain it. Ensure that nfsd only raises
ATR_KILL_SGID if the caller lacks the necessary privileges to retain the
setgid bit.

Without this patch the setgid stripping tests in LTP will fail:

> As you can see, the problem is S_ISGID (0002000) was dropped on a
> non-group-executable file while chown was invoked by super-user, while

[...]

> fchown02.c:66: TFAIL: testfile2: wrong mode permissions 0100700, expected 0102700

[...]

> chown02.c:57: TFAIL: testfile2: wrong mode permissions 0100700, expected 0102700

With this patch all tests pass.

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.
