Biederman Currently every caller of sysfs_chmod_file happens at either file creation time to set a non-default mode or in response to a specific user requested space change in policy. Making timestamps of when the chmod happens and notification of a file changing mode uninteresting. Remove the unnecessary time stamp and filesystem change notification, and removes the last of the explicit inotify and donitfy support from sysfs. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
