Yes, as clearly documented in the commit log. In fact turning it
into an explicit if 0 (that is removing this code) might be a not
bad idea either - the code was added to work around a
if (lo->lo_refcnt > 1) /* we needed one fd for the ioctl */
return -EBUSY;
that already did not make much sense to start with (but goes
back to before git history).
But for now I'd really prefer to stop moving the goalpost further and
further.
