Pull setgid updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work to move setgid stripping out of individual
  filesystems and into the VFS itself.

  Creating files that have both the S_IXGRP and S_ISGID bit raised in
  directories that themselves have the S_ISGID bit set requires
  additional privileges to avoid security issues.

  When a filesystem creates a new inode it needs to take care that the
  caller is either in the group of the newly created inode or they have
  CAP_FSETID in their current user namespace and are privileged over the
  parent directory of the new inode. If any of these two conditions is
  true then the S_ISGID bit can be raised for an S_IXGRP file and if not
  it needs to be stripped.

  However, there are several key issues with the current implementation:

   - S_ISGID stripping logic is entangled with umask stripping.

     For example, if the umask removes the S_IXGRP bit from the file
     about to be created then the S_ISGID bit will be kept.

     The inode_init_owner() helper is responsible for S_ISGID stripping
     and is called before posix_acl_create(). So we can end up with two
     different orderings:

     1. FS without POSIX ACL support

        First strip umask then strip S_ISGID in inode_init_owner().

        In other words, if a filesystem doesn't support or enable POSIX
        ACLs then umask stripping is done directly in the vfs before
        calling into the filesystem:

     2. FS with POSIX ACL support

        First strip S_ISGID in inode_init_owner() then strip umask in
        posix_acl_create().

        In other words, if the filesystem does support POSIX ACLs then
        unmask stripping may be done in the filesystem itself when
        calling posix_acl_create().

     Note that technically filesystems are free to impose their own
     ordering between posix_acl_create() and inode_init_owner() meaning
     that there's additional ordering issues that influence S_ISGID
     inheritance.

     (Note that the commit message of commit 1639a49ccdce ("fs: move
     S_ISGID stripping into the vfs_*() helpers") gets the ordering
     between inode_init_owner() and posix_acl_create() the wrong way
     around. I realized this too late.)

   - Filesystems that don't rely on inode_init_owner() don't get S_ISGID
     stripping logic.

     While that may be intentional (e.g. network filesystems might just
     defer setgid stripping to a server) it is often just a security
     issue.

     Note that mandating the use of inode_init_owner() was proposed as
     an alternative solution but that wouldn't fix the ordering issues
     and there are examples such as afs where the use of
     inode_init_owner() isn't possible.

     In any case, we should also try the cleaner and generalized
     solution first before resorting to this approach.

   - We still have S_ISGID inheritance bugs years after the initial
     round of S_ISGID inheritance fixes:

       e014f37db1a2 ("xfs: use setattr_copy to set vfs inode attributes")
       01ea173e103e ("xfs: fix up non-directory creation in SGID directories")
       fd84bfdddd16 ("ceph: fix up non-directory creation in SGID directories")

  All of this led us to conclude that the current state is too messy.
  While we won't be able to make it completely clean as
  posix_acl_create() is still a filesystem specific call we can improve
  the S_SIGD stripping situation quite a bit by hoisting it out of
  inode_init_owner() and into the respective vfs creation operations.

  The obvious advantage is that we don't need to rely on individual
  filesystems getting S_ISGID stripping right and instead can
  standardize the ordering between S_ISGID and umask stripping directly
  in the VFS.

  A few short implementation notes:

   - The stripping logic needs to happen in vfs_*() helpers for the sake
     of stacking filesystems such as overlayfs that rely on these
     helpers taking care of S_ISGID stripping.

   - Security hooks have never seen the mode as it is ultimately seen by
     the filesystem because of the ordering issue we mentioned. Nothing
     is changed for them. We simply continue to strip the umask before
     passing the mode down to the security hooks.

   - The following filesystems use inode_init_owner() and thus relied on
     S_ISGID stripping: spufs, 9p, bfs, btrfs, ext2, ext4, f2fs,
     hfsplus, hugetlbfs, jfs, minix, nilfs2, ntfs3, ocfs2, omfs,
     overlayfs, ramfs, reiserfs, sysv, ubifs, udf, ufs, xfs, zonefs,
     bpf, tmpfs.

     We've audited all callchains as best as we could. More details can
     be found in the commit message to 1639a49ccdce ("fs: move S_ISGID
     stripping into the vfs_*() helpers")"
