This patch adds a new FSYNCDIR request, which is sent when fsync is called
on directories. This operation is available in libfuse 2.3-pre1 or
greater.

Don't change mtime/ctime/atime to local time on read/write. Rather invalidate
file attributes, so next stat() will force a GETATTR call. Bug reported by
Ben Grimm.

This patch removes a long lasting "hack" in FUSE, which used a separate
channel (a file descriptor refering to a disk-file) to transfer directory
contents from userspace to the kernel.
The patch adds three new operations (OPENDIR, READDIR, RELEASEDIR), which
have semantics and implementation exactly maching the respective file
operations (OPEN, READ, RELEASE).
This simplifies the directory reading code. Also disk space is not
necessary, which can be important in embedded systems.

This patch tightens the check for allowing processes to access non-privileged
mounts. The rational is that the filesystem implementation can control the
behavior or get otherwise unavailable information of the filesystem user. If
the filesystem user process has the same uid, gid, and is not suid or sgid
application, then access is safe. Otherwise access is not allowed unless the
"allow_other" mount option is given (for which policy is controlled by the
userspace mount utility).
Thanks to everyone linux-fsdevel, especially Martin Mares who helped uncover
problems with the previous approach.
