By "overhead", I didn't mean it from a performance perspective, but
was concerned about the dentry_open() failing.  If "dentry_open" fails
for any reason, the file hash will not be re-calculated, causing
future file opens to fail.  Missing is the test for dentry_open()
failure.

By removing the "read" check, re-opening the file is now for all
files, not just those opened without "read".  From a testing
perspective, it will catch problems faster, but ...

I've had a patch queued that removes the O_DIRECT test, but haven't
had a chance to test it on ALL filesystems.  I would probably re-open
the file with the original flags, plus read, as much as possible.
