Hi all,
Commit 01ea173e103edd5ec41acec65b9261b87e123fc2 (upstream: xfs: fix up
non-directory creation in SGID directories) fixes an issue where in xfs
sometimes, a local user could create files with an unitended group
permissions as an owner and execution where a directory is SGID and belongs to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of this group and seems like a good candidate for the v5.10 stable tree given that 5.10 is used in versions of debian, ubuntu.
This patch applies cleanly. Let me know what you think

Since you already posted the patch, I wrote what I think on the post:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/CAOQ4uxi_Q8aXUg+FM0Q9__t=KqJSVqOgkS8j8kNC3MQfniZLWA@mail.gmail.com/
Bottom line - I think that the patch should be applied to 5.10.y
without further delay.
Thanks,
Amir.
