    nfsd: nfsd_open: when dentry_open returns an error do not propagate as struct file · e4daf1ff

    The following call chain:
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    nfs4_get_vfs_file
    - nfsd_open
      - dentry_open
        - do_dentry_open
          - __get_file_write_access
            - get_write_access
              - return atomic_inc_unless_negative(&inode->i_writecount) ? 0 : -ETXTBSY;
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    
    can result in the following state:
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    struct nfs4_file {
    ...
      fi_fds = {0xffff880c1fa65c80, 0xffffffffffffffe6, 0x0},
      fi_access = {{
          counter = 0x1
        }, {
          counter = 0x0
        }},
    ...
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    
    1) First time around, in nfs4_get_vfs_file() fp->fi_fds[O_WRONLY] is
    NULL, hence nfsd_open() is called where we get status set to an error
    and fp->fi_fds[O_WRONLY] to -ETXTBSY. Thus we do not reach
    nfs4_file_get_access() and fi_access[O_WRONLY] is not incremented.
    
    2) Second time around, in nfs4_get_vfs_file() fp->fi_fds[O_WRONLY] is
    NOT NULL (-ETXTBSY), so nfsd_open() is NOT called, but
    nfs4_file_get_access() IS called and fi_access[O_WRONLY] is incremented.
    Thus we leave a landmine in the form of the nfs4_file data structure in
    an incorrect state.
    
    3) Eventually, when __nfs4_file_put_access() is called it finds
    fi_access[O_WRONLY] being non-zero, it decrements it and calls
    nfs4_file_put_fd() which tries to fput -ETXTBSY.
