Subject: [172/200] GFS2: Fix permissions checking for setflags ioctl()

2.6.34-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com>

commit 7df0e0397b9a18358573274db9fdab991941062f upstream.

We should be checking for the ownership of the file for which
flags are being set, rather than just for write access.
