eCryptfs: ecryptfs_setattr() bugfix
There is another bug recently introduced into the ecryptfs_setattr() function in 2.6.22. eCryptfs will attempt to treat special files like regular eCryptfs files on chmod, chown, and so forth. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference. This patch validates that the file is a regular file before proceeding with operations related to the inode's crypt_stat. Thanks to Ryusuke Konishi for finding this bug and suggesting the fix.
