[patch 015/123] vfs: take f_lock on modifying f_mode after open time

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Mar 12 2010 - 19:20:15 EST


2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

-----------------

From: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 42e49608683ab25fbbbf9c40edb944601e543882 upstream.

We'll introduce FMODE_RANDOM which will be runtime modified. So protect
all runtime modification to f_mode with f_lock to avoid races.
