Subsystem:
ecrypt file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), overlay filesystem, the rest · Maintainers:

Future patches will add new syscalls which use these functions. As this interface won't be used for ioctls only the EOPNOSUPP is more appropriate return code. This patch coverts return code from ENOIOCTLCMD to EOPNOSUPP for vfs_fileattr_get and vfs_fileattr_set. To save old behavior translate EOPNOSUPP back for current users - overlayfs, encryptfs and fs/ioctl.c.
