2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com>

commit 7a52b34b07122ff5f45258d47f260f8a525518f0 upstream.

Sumeet Lahorani <sumeet.lahorani@oracle.com> reported that the IPoIB
child entries are world-writable; however we don't want ordinary users
to be able to create and destroy child interfaces, so fix them to be
writable only by root.
