eCryptfs: fix permission denied with ecryptfs_xattr mount option when create readonly file
When the ecryptfs_xattr mount option is turned on, the ecryptfs metadata will be written to xattr via vfs_setxattr, which will check the WRITE permissions. However, this will cause denial of permission when creating a file withoug write permission. So fix this by calling __vfs_setxattr directly to skip permission check.
