Hi,
It looks like 8c567a7fab6e086a0284eee2db82348521e7120c ("xfs: add
capability check to free eofblocks ioctl") is a security fix that was
never sent to -stable? From what I can see, it was introduced in 3.8
by 8ca149de80478441352a8622ea15fae7de703ced ("xfs: add
XFS_IOC_FREE_EOFBLOCKS ioctl").
I don't see this in the 3.8.y tree. Should it be added there and newer?
Thanks,
-Kees
