From 83f936c75e3689a63253d89c47a4d239c56d7410 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2014 12:02:47 -0400 Subject: mark struct file that had write access grabbed by open() new flag in ->f_mode - FMODE_WRITER. Set by do_dentry_open() in case when it has grabbed write access, checked by __fput() to decide whether it wants to drop the sucker. Allows to stop bothering with mnt_clone_write() in alloc_file(), along with fewer special_file() checks.
