[2/5] fs: Rename file_remove_suid() to file_remove_privs()

Commit Message

Jan Kara May 19, 2015, 9:46 a.m. UTC

file_remove_suid() is a misnomer since it removes also security related
xattrs and sets S_NOSEC flag. Also should_remove_suid() tells something
else than whether file_remove_suid() call is necessary which leads to
bugs.
