Subject: [PATCH 4.19 28/74] tracefs: Have new files inherit the ownership of their parent

From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>

commit ee7f3666995d8537dec17b1d35425f28877671a9 upstream.

If directories in tracefs have their ownership changed, then any new files
and directories that are created under those directories should inherit
the ownership of the director they are created in.
