Adrian Hunter 5a0baf5123 perf tools: Fix mode setting in copyfile_mode_ns()
slow_copyfile() opens the file by name, so "write" permissions must not
be removed in copyfile_mode_ns() before calling slow_copyfile().

Example:

 Before:

  $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore
  $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_sys_rawio=ep" tools/perf/perf
  $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -k /proc/kcore
  Couldn't add /proc/kcore

 After:

  $ sudo chmod +r /proc/kcore
  $ sudo setcap "cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_ptrace,cap_syslog,cap_sys_rawio=ep" tools/perf/perf
  $ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore
  kcore added to build-id cache directory /home/ahunter/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/37e340b1b5a7cf4f57ba8de2bc777359588a957f/2019100709562289

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
