inode_change_ok() will be resposible for clearing capabilities and IMA
extended attributes and as such will need dentry. Give it as an argument
to inode_change_ok() instead of an inode. Also rename inode_change_ok()
to setattr_prepare() to better relect that it does also some
modifications in addition to checks.

<title>vfs: move permission checking into notify_change() for utimes(NULL)</title>

This fixes a bug where the permission was not properly checked in
overlayfs.  The testcase is ltp/utimensat01.

It is also cleaner and safer to do the permission checking in the vfs
helper instead of the caller.

This patch introduces an additional ia_valid flag ATTR_TOUCH (since
touch(1) is the most obvious user of utimes(NULL)) that is passed into
notify_change whenever the conditions for this special permission checking
mode are met.

<title>fs: return EPERM on immutable inode</title>

In most cases, EPERM is returned on immutable inode, and there're only a
few places returning EACCES. I noticed this when running LTP on
overlayfs, setxattr03 failed due to unexpected EACCES on immutable
inode.

So converting all EACCES to EPERM on immutable inode.

Please, use those for access to -&gt;i_mutex; over the coming cycle

Clearly, we can't handle the NULL filename case, but we can deal with
the case where there's a real pathname.
