Indeed, so some of the f_flags end up being different. I assumed
this was done intentionally, but it might be worth checking if
the patch below makes any difference when the flags get put
back the way they were. This is probably not the correct fix, but
may help figure out what is going on. It should apply to anything
from 546694b8f658 ("autofs: add autofs_parse_fd()") to the current
linux-next:
