[patch 4/4] vfs: immutable inode checking cleanup

Move the immutable and append-only checks from chmod, chown and utimes
into notify_change().  Checks for immutable and append-only files are
always performed by the VFS and not by the filesystem (see
permission() and may_...() in namei.c), so these belong in
notify_change(), and not in inode_change_ok().

This should be completely equivalent.
