I'm still rejecting this. I spent some time trying to avoid overhead
in the really basic permission code the last couple of weeks, and I
look at this and go "this is adding more overhead".

It all seems to be completely broken too. Doing some permission check
at open() time *aftert* the O_TRUNC has already truncated the file?
No. That's just beyond stupid. That's just terminally broken sh*t.

And that's just the stuff I noticed until I got so fed up that I
stopped reading the patches.
