[PATCH v28 02/21] vfs: Add MAY_CREATE_FILE and MAY_CREATE_DIR permission flags

From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Mon Feb 13 2017 - 10:45:46 EST


Richacls distinguish between creating non-directories and directories.
To support that, add an isdir parameter to may_create(). When checking
inode_permission() for create permission, pass in MAY_CREATE_FILE or
MAY_CREATE_DIR as an additional mask flag.

Add may_replace() to allow checking for delete as well as create access
when replacing an existing file in vfs_rename().
