commit 5a6f2896ed44029ced2a33ac64c962737c5171a0
Author: Peter Seebach <peter.seebach@windriver.com>

permissions updates: improve fchmodat, mask out write bits
Upstream-Status: Backport of several patches from 1.6 branch,
combined.
Backport from pseudo 1.6 of improvements to fchmodat (handle
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW by rejecting it if the host system does,
to make GNU tar happier), also mask out write bits from filesystem
modes to avoid security problems.
The 1.6 patches are:
