    vfs: renumber FMODE_NONOTIFY and add to uniqueness check · 75069f2b
    David Drysdale authored
    Fix clashing values for O_PATH and FMODE_NONOTIFY on sparc.  The
    clashing O_PATH value was added in commit 5229645b ("vfs: add
    nonconflicting values for O_PATH") but this can't be changed as it is
    user-visible.
    
    FMODE_NONOTIFY is only used internally in the kernel, but it is in the
    same numbering space as the other O_* flags, as indicated by the comment
    at the top of include/uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h (and its use in
    fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c).  So renumber it to avoid the clash.
    
    All of this has happened before (commit 12ed2e36
    
    : "fanotify:
    FMODE_NONOTIFY and __O_SYNC in sparc conflict"), and all of this will
    happen again -- so update the uniqueness check in fcntl_init() to
    include __FMODE_NONOTIFY.
