Pull file_remove_privs() fix from Christian Brauner:
"As part of Stefan's and Jens' work to add async buffered write
support to xfs we refactored file_remove_privs() and added
__file_remove_privs() to avoid calling __remove_privs() when
IOCB_NOWAIT is passed.
While debugging a recent performance regression report I found that
during review we missed that commit faf99b5635 ("fs: add
__remove_file_privs() with flags parameter") accidently changed
behavior when dentry_needs_remove_privs() returns zero.
Before the commit it would still call inode_has_no_xattr() setting
the S_NOSEC bit and thereby avoiding even calling into
dentry_needs_remove_privs() the next time this function is called.
After that commit inode_has_no_xattr() would only be called if
__remove_privs() had to be called.
Restore the old behavior. This is likely the cause of the performance
regression"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
