#     vfs: avoid duplicating creds in faccessat if possible
#     
#     access(2) remains commonly used, for example on exec:
#     access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK)
#     
#     or when running gcc: strace -c gcc empty.c
#     
#       % time     seconds  usecs/call     calls    errors syscall
#       ------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ----------------
#         0.00    0.000000           0        42        26 access
#     
#     It falls down to do_faccessat without the AT_EACCESS flag, which in turn
#     results in allocation of new creds in order to modify fsuid/fsgid and
#     caps.  This is a very expensive process single-threaded and most notably
#     multi-threaded, with numerous structures getting refed and unrefed on
#     imminent new cred destruction.
#     
#     Turns out for typical consumers the resulting creds would be identical
#     and this can be checked upfront, avoiding the hard work.
#     
#     An access benchmark plugged into will-it-scale running on Cascade Lake
#     shows:
#     
#         test     proc     before       after
#         access1     1    1310582     2908735    (+121%) # distinct files
#         access1    24    4716491    63822173   (+1353%) # distinct files
#         access2    24    2378041     5370335    (+125%) # same file
#     
#     The above benchmarks are not integrated into will-it-scale, but can be
#     found in a pull request:
