Kotresh HR 22c73d52a6 ceph: fix multifs mds auth caps issue
The mds auth caps check should also validate the
fsname along with the associated caps. Not doing
so would result in applying the mds auth caps of
one fs on to the other fs in a multifs ceph cluster.
The bug causes multiple issues w.r.t user
authentication, following is one such example.

Steps to Reproduce (on vstart cluster):
1. Create two file systems in a cluster, say 'fsname1' and 'fsname2'
2. Authorize read only permission to the user 'client.usr' on fs 'fsname1'
    $ceph fs authorize fsname1 client.usr / r
3. Authorize read and write permission to the same user 'client.usr' on fs 'fsname2'
    $ceph fs authorize fsname2 client.usr / rw
4. Update the keyring
    $ceph auth get client.usr >> ./keyring

With above permssions for the user 'client.usr', following is the
expectation.
  a. The 'client.usr' should be able to only read the contents
     and not allowed to create or delete files on file system 'fsname1'.
  b. The 'client.usr' should be able to read/write on file system 'fsname2'.

But, with this bug, the 'client.usr' is allowed to read/write on file
system 'fsname1'. See below.

5. Mount the file system 'fsname1' with the user 'client.usr'
     $sudo bin/mount.ceph usr@.fsname1=/ /kmnt_fsname1_usr/
6. Try creating a file on file system 'fsname1' with user 'client.usr'. This
   should fail but passes with this bug.
     $touch /kmnt_fsname1_usr/file1
7. Mount the file system 'fsname1' with the user 'client.admin' and create a
   file.
     $sudo bin/mount.ceph admin@.fsname1=/ /kmnt_fsname1_admin
     $echo "data" > /kmnt_fsname1_admin/admin_file1
8. Try removing an existing file on file system 'fsname1' with the user
   'client.usr'. This shoudn't succeed but succeeds with the bug.
     $rm -f /kmnt_fsname1_usr/admin_file1

For more information, please take a look at the corresponding mds/fuse patch
and tests added by looking into the tracker mentioned below.

v2: Fix a possible null dereference in doutc
v3: Don't store fsname from mdsmap, validate against
    ceph_mount_options's fsname and use it
v4: Code refactor, better warning message and
    fix possible compiler warning

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
