Vivek Goyal c12dada5f2 ovl: Copy up underlying inode's ->i_mode to overlay inode ...

commit 07a2daab49 upstream.

Right now when a new overlay inode is created, we initialize overlay
inode's ->i_mode from underlying inode ->i_mode but we retain only
file type bits (S_IFMT) and discard permission bits.

This patch changes it and retains permission bits too. This should allow
overlay to do permission checks on overlay inode itself in task context.

[SzM] It also fixes clearing suid/sgid bits on write.
