Looks like a victim of too much copy/paste, we should not be looking at req->open.how in accept. The point is to check CLOEXEC and error out, which we don't invalid direct descriptors on exec. Hence any attempt to get a direct descriptor with CLOEXEC is invalid. No harm is done here, outside of potentially causing a spurious -EINVAL for direct accept requests.
