[PATCH v3 1/7] fcntl: Introduce new O_DENY* open flags

[Pavel Shilovsky]

This patch adds 4 flags:
1) O_DENYREAD that doesn't permit read access,
2) O_DENYWRITE that doesn't permit write access,
3) O_DENYDELETE that doesn't permit delete or rename,
4) O_DENYMAND that enables O_DENY* flags checks.

Network filesystems CIFS, SMB2.0, SMB3.0 and NFSv4 have such flags -
this change can benefit cifs and nfs modules as well as Samba and
NFS file servers. These flags are only take affect for opens with
O_DENYMAND flags - there is no impact on native Linux opens.
