afs: Fix directory permissions check
Doing faccessat("/afs/some/directory", 0) triggers a BUG in the permissions check code. Fix this by just removing the BUG section. If no permissions are asked for, just return okay if the file exists. Also: (1) Split up the directory check so that it has separate if-statements rather than if-else-if (e.g. checking for MAY_EXEC shouldn't skip the check for MAY_READ and MAY_WRITE). (2) Check for MAY_CHDIR as MAY_EXEC. Without the main fix, the following BUG may occur: kernel BUG at fs/afs/security.c:386! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI ...
