No. This will not fit the definition of open(2) in the manpage.

Linux reserves the special, nonstandard access mode 3 (binary 11) in
flags to mean: check for read and write permission on the file and re‐
turn a file descriptor that can't be used for reading or writing. This
nonstandard access mode is used by some Linux drivers to return a file
descriptor that is to be used only for device-specific ioctl(2) opera‐
tions.

Reproducer:
```
1. mount -t nfs -o vers=4.2 $server_ip:/ /mnt/
2. fd = open("/mnt/file", O_ACCMODE|O_DIRECT|O_CREAT) = 3
3. close(fd)
4. fd = open("/mnt/file", O_ACCMODE|O_DIRECT) = -1
```

When firstly open with O_ACCMODE|O_DIRECT flags:
```c
path_openat
open_last_lookups
lookup_open
atomic_open
nfs_atomic_open
create_nfs_open_context
f_mode = flags_to_mode
alloc_nfs_open_context(..., f_mode, ...)
ctx->mode = f_mode // FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE
```

When secondly open with O_ACCMODE|O_DIRECT flags:
```c
path_openat
do_open
vfs_open
do_dentry_open
nfs4_file_open
f_mode = filp->f_mode | flags_to_mode(openflags)
alloc_nfs_open_context(..., f_mode, ...)
ctx->mode = f_mode // FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE
```

Before merging this patch, when firstly open, we does not set FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE to file mode of client, FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE just be set to context mode.

After merging this patch, when secondly open, I just do the same thing, file mode of client will not have FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE bits, file descriptor can't be used for reading or writing.
