Re: [PATCH] net: socket: don't set sk_uid to garbage value in ->setattr()

->setattr() was recently implemented for socket files to sync the socket

copying over the ia_uid member of struct iattr.  However, ia_uid is
actually only valid when ATTR_UID is set in ia_valid, indicating that
the uid is being changed, e.g. by chown.
