Subject: [PATCH 01/11] block_dev: Support checking inode permissions in lookup_bdev()
From: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@...onical.com>
When looking up a block device by path no permission check is
done to verify that the user has access to the block device inode
at the specified path. In some cases it may be necessary to
check permissions towards the inode, such as allowing
unprivileged users to mount block devices in user namespaces.
Add an argument to lookup_bdev() to optionally perform this
permission check. A value of 0 skips the permission check and
behaves the same as before. A non-zero value specifies the mask
of access rights required towards the inode at the specified
path. The check is always skipped if the user has CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
All callers of lookup_bdev() currently pass a mask of 0, so this
patch results in no functional change. Subsequent patches will
add permission checks where appropriate.
Patch v4 is available: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8943601/
