Yeah the bug was 2 years old when I started patching it and now it
is 4 years old...

I suppose, I think the patch is authored according to the maintainer
requirements, but I'm happy to revise and resend it if it no longer
applies.

Arnd and others suggested to maybe use F_SETFL instead:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/CAK8P3a2SN2zeK=dj01Br-m86rJmK8mOyH=gHAidwSPgKAEthVw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

I am happy to do it either way by need to have some input from the
maintainer (Ted). Maybe someone else on the fsdevel list want to
chime in? Maybe any FS maintainer can actually apply this?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
