Commit 06fc0d66 authored by Eric W. Biederman's avatar Eric W. Biederman Committed by Greg Kroah-Hartman

sysfs: In sysfs_chmod_file lazily propagate the mode change.

Now that sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission refresh the vfs
inode there is no need to immediatly push the mode change
into the vfs cache.  Reducing the amount of work needed and
simplifying the locking.
