      Pull binfmt_misc update from James Bottomley:
       "This update is to allow architecture emulation containers to function
        such that the emulation binary can be housed outside the container
        itself.  The container and fs parts both have acks from relevant
        experts.
      
        To use the new feature you have to add an F option to your binfmt_misc
        configuration"
      
      From the docs:
       "The usual behaviour of binfmt_misc is to spawn the binary lazily when
        the misc format file is invoked.  However, this doesn't work very well
        in the face of mount namespaces and changeroots, so the F mode opens
        the binary as soon as the emulation is installed and uses the opened
        image to spawn the emulator, meaning it is always available once
        installed, regardless of how the environment changes"
      
      * tag 'binfmt-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/binfmt_misc:
        binfmt_misc: add F option description to documentation
        binfmt_misc: add persistent opened binary handler for containers
        fs: add filp_clone_open API

      fs: return EPERM on immutable inode · 337684a1
      Eryu Guan authored
      
      
      In most cases, EPERM is returned on immutable inode, and there're only a
      few places returning EACCES. I noticed this when running LTP on
      overlayfs, setxattr03 failed due to unexpected EACCES on immutable
      inode.
      
      So converting all EACCES to EPERM on immutable inode.
