From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Since commit a2ad63daa88b ("VFS: add FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT file flag") file systems can just set the FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT flag at open time instead of wiring up a dummy direct_IO method to indicate support for direct I/O. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> [RH: Rebased to upstream] Signed-off-by: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) <ritesh.list@xxxxxxxxx> --- Stumbled upon [1], while I was trying to enable this flag in ext4_file_open(). Looks like it might have slipped through the cracks. Hence sending this patch with Christoph as the author.
