The function kstrtoul() used to parse number strings in the mount
option parser is set to expect a base 10 number . This treats the octal
numbers passed for mount options such as file_mode as base10 numbers
leading to incorrect behavior.
Change the 'base' argument passed to kstrtoul from 10 to 0 to
allow it to auto-detect the base of the number passed.

Yes, that's fixed it. Thanks again, Sachin.
