fs: Simplify getattr interface function checking AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag
Commit 8a924db2d7b5 ("fs: Pass AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to getattr interface function")' introduced the AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to ensure that the call paths only call vfs_getattr_nosec if it is set instead of vfs_getattr. Now, simplify the getattr interface functions of filesystems where the flag AT_GETATTR_NOSEC is checked. There is only a single caller of inode_operations getattr function and it is located in fs/stat.c in vfs_getattr_nosec. The caller there is the only one from which the AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag is passed from. Two filesystems are checking this flag in .getattr and the flag is always passed to them unconditionally from only vfs_getattr_nosec: - ecryptfs: Simplify by always calling vfs_getattr_nosec in ecryptfs_getattr. From there the flag is passed to no other function and this function is not called otherwise. - overlayfs: Simplify by always calling vfs_getattr_nosec in ovl_getattr. From there the flag is passed to no other function and this function is not called otherwise. The query_flags in vfs_getattr_nosec will mask-out AT_GETATTR_NOSEC from any caller using AT_STATX_SYNC_TYPE as mask so that the flag is not important inside this function. Also, since no filesystem is checking the flag anymore, remove the flag entirely now, including the BUG_ON check that never triggered. The net change of the changes here combined with the original commit is that ecryptfs and overlayfs do not call vfs_getattr but only vfs_getattr_nosec.
