Subject: [PATCH 1/5] fs: Verify access of user towards block device file when mounting
When mounting a filesystem on a block device there is currently
no verification that the user has appropriate access to the
device file passed to mount. This has not been an issue so far
since the user in question has always been root, but this must
be changed before allowing unprivileged users to mount in user
namespaces.
To fix this, add an argument to lookup_bdev() to specify the
required permissions. If the mask of permissions is zero, or
if the user has CAP_SYS_ADMIN, the permission check is skipped,
otherwise the lookup fails if the user does not have the
specified access rights for the inode at the supplied path.
Callers associated with mounting are updated to pass permission
masks to lookup_bdev() so that these mounts will fail for an
unprivileged user who lacks permissions for the block device
inode. All other callers pass 0 to maintain their current
behaviors.
