patch -- clear ATTR_SIZE bit on create if it's going to be a no-op anyway

This patch is closer to what went upstream than OEL's and avoids the change in semantics wrt to root changing ownership on create. Still needs to be tested.

You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/el5
