Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
"A fix and a cleanup.
The fix: way back in the stone age (2003) mode was set to the magic
number "755" in what is now fs/orangefs/namei.c(orangefs_symlink).
Łukasz Wrochna reported it and Artur Świgoń sent in a patch to change
it to octal. Maybe it shouldn't be a magic number at all but rather
something like "S_IRWXU | S_IRGRP | S_IXGRP | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH"...
cleanup: Colin Ian King found a redundant assignment and sent in a
patch to remove it"
[ And no, octal numbers for permissions are a lot more legible than a
binary 'or' of some line noise macros. So 0755 is preferred over
trying to spell it out using "helpful" macros - Linus ]
