First of all, I want to know which case make mismatching permission
between xattr and i_mode.
And when we call chmod, inode is locked in sys_chmod. If so,
inode->i_mode can be changed by any updated inode during chmod
although inode is locked ?

Could you please tell me what is same lock region ? (inode->i_mutex or
mutex_lock_op(sbi))

Thanks.
