Oh, the dangers of the bitshift index access helper confusing the
reader.

But I think this is only really nessecary because of the odd fi_access
semantics, and if we sort that out as suggested by me earlier we can
get rid of this confusion as the access/deny checks don't really care
about the additional both bit, and once the the O_RDWR file has it's own
proper refconting there shouldn't be any need to treat it special.
