From 6b4e8085c0004382b985a5c005c685073630e746 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sun, 8 Jul 2018 21:45:07 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] make sure do_dentry_open() won't return positive as an error An ->open() instances really, really should not be doing that. There's a lot of places e.g. around atomic_open() that could be confused by that, so let's catch that early.
