I'm working on a new patchset for this that includes changes to make
cifs_setattr silently ignore ownership and mode changes that don't affect
ATTR_READONLY.

I've also got a related reproducer that shows that in-memory mode changes like
this can be lost as soon as the box is subject to memory pressure.

I need to do a bit more testing and cleanup on the patches. I'll try to post
them here and upstream in the next few days.
