Commit Message

Ronnie Sahlberg Oct. 4, 2017, 4:59 a.m. UTC
If the cifsacl mount option is used and we try to list a directory that
contains entries where we do not have READ_CONTROL access we will see errors
such as "ls: cannot access '...': Permission denied"
and the directory listing will show files with funny attributes like
"-?????????? ? ?    ?    ?            ? foo002.txt"

This patch fixes this by checking the error from reading the security
descriptor and if it failed with EACCES we fake the attributes as
all 0.
