Do we still need fput_badopen()? Couldn't we just make this part of
regular fput() at this point? ie:
+++ b/fs/file_table.c
@@ -435,6 +435,10 @@ void fput(struct file *file)
if (atomic_long_dec_and_test(&file->f_count)) {
struct task_struct *task = current;
+ if (!(file->f_mode & FMODE_OPENED)) {
+ file_free(file);
+ return;
+ }
if (likely(!in_interrupt() && !(task->flags & PF_KTHREAD))) {
init_task_work(&file->f_rcuhead, ____fput);
if (!task_work_add(task, &file->f_rcuhead, TWA_RESUME))
