Merge branch 'work.gfs2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull gfs2 setattr updates from Al Viro:
 "Make it possible for filesystems to use a generic 'may_setattr()' and
  switch gfs2 to using it"

* 'work.gfs2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  gfs2: Switch to may_setattr in gfs2_setattr
  fs: Move notify_change permission checks into may_setattr
