commit 89bdfaf upstream. ovl_ioctl_set_flags() does a capability check using flags, but then the real ioctl double-fetches flags and uses potentially different value. The "Check the capability before cred override" comment misleading: user can skip this check by presenting benign flags first and then overwriting them to non-benign flags. Just remove the cred override for now, hoping this doesn't cause a regression. The proper solution is to create a new setxflags i_op (patches are in the works). Xfstests don't show a regression.
