[04/18] fuse: reject O_DIRECT flag also in fuse_create

2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Csaba Henk <csaba [at] gluster>

commit 1b7323965a8c6eee9dc4e345a7ae4bff1dc93149 upstream.

The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT:

"VFS checks this, but only _after_ ->open()"

also holds for fuse_create, however, the same kind of check was missing there.

As an impact of this bug, open(newfile, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT) fails, but a
stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE
request appropriately.

Other impact: in the above situation ima_file_free() will complain to open/free
imbalance if CONFIG_IMA is set.

I must be missing something. The added part seems to be identical to
the lines just above.

Forgive me if I am totally misreading the diff.

Oops, you are right, this was already included in the last .27 release,
my mistake. I've now deleted it from the .27 queue.

thanks,
