Subject: vfs: chmod: Hung task after calling chmod()

Hi all,

I've found the following backtrace after running the trinity fuzzer in a KVM guest using the latest linux-next. Unfortunately I don't have full logs for this, so I can't tell exactly which parameters were passed to chmod().

[  241.469508] INFO: task trinity:3058 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
