[PATCH 03/15] sysfs: fix sysfs_chmod_file() such that it updates sd->s_mode too

[Tejun Heo]

sysfs_chmod_file() looked and updated only inode of the target file.
Dentry and inode are reclaimable and the update mode data will go away
when the inode is reclaimed.  This patch makes sysfs_chmod_file()
update sd->s_mode too such that the change is permanent.
