fchown permission check bug

[Jakob Østergaard <joe@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear list,

I encountered a problem with XFS in kernel 2.6.15.4 - if this is not the 
proper place to send the bug report, please let me know.

Problem: A non-root process with CAP_CHOWN cannot fchown() a file.

vsftpd shows this problem - on ext3 it will successfully fchown uploaded 
files, whereas on XFS the fchown call will fail.

I guess this should be fairly simple to reproduce - if you need more 
information please let me know.
