fs.lchown should be undeprecated #19868

Closed
@simevo

Description

fs.lchown is currently deprecated

But fs.lchown can be helpful to address Time of check to time of use (TOCTOU) bugs, like this one,
as it does not dereference symbolic links and merely changes the owner of the link.

Please undeprecate fs.lchown and implement it on the linux platform.
