So far we expected the client to access the access mode themselves, and set a restrictive 0700 server-side. However, in some scenarios it's handy if the inode is created server-side already with the right mode, in particular when the client doesn't do anything with the dir just yet, and just needs it to be there with the right mode. If it has to adjust the mode client-side it might otherwise need to fork something off, join the selected userns, adjust the mode, and kill the child off again.
