    fuse: fix permission checking
    
    I added a nasty local variable shadowing bug to fuse in 2.6.24, with the
    result, that the 'default_permissions' mount option is basically ignored.
    
    How did this happen?
    
     - old err declaration in inner scope
     - new err getting declared in outer scope
     - 'return err' from inner scope getting removed
     - old declaration not being noticed
    
    -Wshadow would have saved us, but it doesn't seem practical for
    the kernel :(
    
    More testing would have also saved us :((
