[PATCH] add a vfs_permission helper

Browse Source 
Most permission() calls have a struct nameidata * available.  This helper
takes that as an argument and thus makes sure we pass it down for lookup
intents and prepares for per-mount read-only support where we need a struct
vfsmount for checking whether a file is writeable.
