cifs: Do not set cifs/ntfs acl using a file handle (try #4)
Set security descriptor using path name instead of a file handle. We can't be sure that the file handle has adequate permission to set a security descriptor (to modify DACL). Function set_cifs_acl_by_fid() has been removed since we can't be sure how a file was opened for writing, a valid request can fail if the file was not opened with two above mentioned permissions. We could have opted to add on WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER permissions to file opens and then use that file handle but adding addtional permissions such as WRITE_DAC and WRITE_OWNER could cause an any open to fail. And it was incorrect to look for read file handle to set a security descriptor anyway. Signed-off-by: Shirish Pargaonkar <shirishpargaonkar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
