Take a look at sd_ioctl() and note that fcntl(2) can be used to set/clear O_NDELAY.
The current variant works since we recalculate mode every time; this one will end up
stuck with whatever we had at open time.  Note that Christoph's series could do this
in blkdev_ioctl()
-       /*
-        * O_NDELAY can be altered using fcntl(.., F_SETFL, ..), so we have
-        * to updated it before every ioctl.
-        */
-       if (file->f_flags & O_NDELAY)
-               mode |= FMODE_NDELAY;
-       else
-               mode &= ~FMODE_NDELAY;
precisely because his file_to_blk_mode() picks O_NDELAY from flags when blkdev_ioctl()
calls it.

The same goes for compat counterpart of that thing.  Both need to deal with that
scenario - you need something that would pick the O_NDELAY updates from ->f_flags.

Al, trying to catch up on the awful pile of mail that has accumulated over the 3 months
of being net.dead...
