4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>
commit ff06db1efb2ad6db06eb5b99b88a0c15a9cc9b0e upstream.
Commit 09954bad4 ("floppy: refactor open() flags handling"), as a
side-effect, causes open(/dev/fdX, O_ACCMODE) to fail. It turns out that
this is being used setfdprm userspace for ioctl-only open().
Reintroduce back the original behavior wrt !(FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE)
modes, while still keeping the original O_NDELAY bug fixed.

I have a problem with this patch. It only fixes one of the regressions
caused by the original change to the floppy driver. It does not address
the user land breakage of removing the NODELAY flag checks.
Thanks
