Vivek Goyal 227e5d7fd5 virtiofsd: Add capability to change/restore umask
When parent directory has default acl and a file is created in that
directory, then umask is ignored and final file permissions are
determined using default acl instead. (man 2 umask).

Currently, fuse applies the umask and sends modified mode in create
request accordingly. fuse server can set FUSE_DONT_MASK and tell
fuse client to not apply umask and fuse server will take care of
it as needed.

With posix acls enabled, requirement will be that we want umask
to determine final file mode if parent directory does not have
default acl.

So if posix acls are enabled, opt in for FUSE_DONT_MASK. virtiofsd
will set umask of the thread doing file creation. And host kernel
should use that umask if parent directory does not have default
acls, otherwise umask does not take affect.

Miklos mentioned that we already call unshare(CLONE_FS) for
every thread. That means umask has now become property of per
thread and it should be ok to manipulate it in file creation path.

This patch only adds capability to change umask and restore it. It
does not enable it yet. Next few patches will add capability to enable it
based on if user enabled posix_acl or not.

This should fix fstest generic/099.
